The Women in Housing Awards recognise women making an impact across the UK housing sector. The programme celebrates achievements across categories and criteria set by the organiser. Entrants submit their work against these published requirements.
Judges then assess projects, organisations and individuals before selecting a shortlist and final winners. The categories highlight the areas of housing that the programme seeks to recognise.
What the awards recognise
Judges assess entries against the requirements of each category. These can cover design, delivery, innovation, sustainability, technical performance, customer outcomes and organisational achievement.
Categories can also recognise the contribution and achievements of individuals working across the housing sector.
Shortlisted entries demonstrate how professionals and organisations have addressed the relevant criteria. The final ceremony brings these categories together and announces the judging outcomes.
The awards focus on submitted work and its assessment rather than operating as a general conference or exhibition. The organiser sets the eligibility rules, category descriptions and judging process for each edition. It also appoints the judging panel and publishes the shortlist. Together, these elements define the scope of the programme and the achievements it recognises.
Published categories and shortlists also demonstrate the range of work entered each year. Entries can include developments, design projects, business initiatives and individual achievements.
The shortlist and final winners provide a record of the judging outcomes for each edition.
