Award categories

There are four prestigious award categories, each with a Winner and two Highly Commended awards. Please click the categories below for more information and entry forms.

This category recognises excellent support provided to a client who has been or is experiencing vulnerability.

We want to hear your real life stories of how you identified a client who is/was experiencing vulnerability, describe the situation, how you supported them, how this was received by your client (and, where relevant, their wider family), the outcome and current situation. 

Tell us why you’re proud of this outcome.

Please hide client identity/s by using a pseudonym or keeping it anonymous.

There will be three awards: Winner and two Highly Commended

This category recognises innovative and/or effective use of data and technology to advance the customer vulnerability agenda.

It’s not necessarily about large scale initiatives. We’re more interested in how firms are using their data and IT resources, to get closer to and better serve their customers who may be experiencing vulnerability.

Tell us how you've used your existing data, or how you've gathered and stored new data, to advance your customer vulnerability agenda. Or how you’ve used technology to identify or support clients experiencing vulnerability. 

These can be simple steps to segment clients or highlight potential risks – you don’t need to have created a new piece of artificial intelligence to win this award.

There will be three awards: Winner and two Highly Commended
