Nominations for the Contact Awards 2025 are on the rise, with 250 in to date! Thank you to everyone who has already nominated in one of our six award categories this year.

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be focusing on each award category.

This week its our Grandparent category

Children lucky enough to grow up knowing their grandparents mostly find it an enriching – and often fun! – relationship. Grandparents in turn have all the pleasure of being with children without the responsibilities of being a parent.

But many grandparents do take on extra responsibilities to support their child in their parenting role. Whether that’s helping with childcare and the school runs; providing emotional support and a listening ear; or offering wisdom and advice when parents are making decisions about their disabled child’s care.

That’s why we’re recognising all the wonderful and everyday things grandparents do for their family.

Nominate now!

And if this sounds like your child’s grandparent, why not nominate them today?

Nominations close on 30 July 2025. Those shortlisted under each category will be invited to an exciting gala awards evening in Parliament in November, where the winners will be announced.
