Who the Awards are for
The Butler Trust Awards are open to people working in custodial and community justice settings across the UK.
The Awards are for people not projects, those who do their job outstandingly well – the Hidden Heroes among Hidden Heroes – whether on the landings, or in any other role, and whether they are a member of staff, a volunteer, or an employee of an outside agency.
The Awards are primarily for individuals. We do occasionally give Awards to two or (very rarely) three people jointly, where each nominee is judged outstanding in their own right – but we are afraid we can not accept nominations for larger groups.
