Nominations have officially opened for the Scaff Star Awards, a key feature of the upcoming National Scaffolding Week (NSW) 2024.

This annual event, set to take place in October, seeks to recognise and celebrate outstanding contributions within the scaffolding and access sector, a vital part of the UK’s construction industry.

National Scaffolding Week 2024 aims to spotlight the achievements of individuals who have made significant impacts in the scaffolding industry.

With over 33,000 scaffolding operatives working nationwide, the Scaff Star Awards are designed to honour those who have gone above and beyond in their roles.

The awards are open to a wide range of nominees, including professionals who have supported charitable initiatives, those who have played a crucial role in mentoring and training the next generation of scaffolding talent, and veterans of the industry whose long-standing dedication warrants recognition.

Nominations can be submitted via the official NSW website. Nominees will be featured on the NSW website and across its social media platforms.

The winners will be celebrated at the Scaffolding Conference in October, hosted by the Scaffolding Association.

The deadline for nominations is Friday, September 27th, 2024. Industry professionals and members of the public are encouraged to nominate deserving individuals to ensure their contributions are recognised.

National Scaffolding Week serves as a platform to celebrate industry achievements and inspire the next generation of scaffolding professionals. The week-long event highlights the diverse career opportunities available, promotes best practices, and showcases innovative projects within the sector.
