At the heart of every strong kinship care community are individuals who generously share their time, experience and understanding to support others. Our first ever Kinship Care Awards recognise kinship carers who have made an outstanding contribution to helping fellow carers navigate the challenges and celebrate the successes of kinship care.
Whether through offering practical advice, providing emotional support, creating opportunities for connection, or championing the voices of kinship families, these individuals help others feel less alone and more empowered. Their kindness, empathy and commitment strengthen our community and make a lasting difference to the lives of kinship carers and the children they raise.
We invite you to consider who in our community has supported you and why they deserve to receive a Kinship Care Award.
Alternative formats and accessibility
If you require any of this information in an alternative format, then please contact us via email at lisa.north@westsussex.gov.uk or by telephone on 0330 222 7016 and we will do our best to assist you. If you are deaf or hard of hearing and have BT Relay UK app (previously known as an NGT texting app) installed on your computer, laptop or smartphone, you can contact us on 18001 07729 300669.
Please note, you can use the Google Translate function to access this project in a range of different languages. The Google Translate widget can be found at the top left-hand side of the project page, where it sits just above the black West Sussex County Council ribbon.
