The Proud Scotland Awards™is back for its third year in 2021
Nominations are now open and we ask you to nominate someone or organisation you feel deserves rewarded at The Proud Scotland Awards 2021.
The Proud Scotland Awards are designed to celebrate the LGBTQI+ community by recognising the outstanding work and commitment of individuals and organisations within and supportive of our community in Scotland.
They honour and encourage all, north to south, who stand up for diversity, equality and inclusion. Over the last two years we have awarded lots of very special people and organisations in recognition of their work and dedication to others. We are delighted to be opening up nominations again for The Royal Bank of Scotland Proud Scotland Awards 2021 where more will be honoured for all that they do.

Help us celebrate the amazing work that has happened by nominating your star now.
