Nominations sought for Scottish Party Awards

By | Wed 4th March 2015 - 10:25 am

Scottish Liberal Democrats have their Spring Conference in Aberdeen from 20-22 March. At that event, a series of awards will be presented for outstanding service and commitment to the party. Nominations are sought from members for the following:

  • The Rae Michie Quaich for best contribution to membership recruitment and retention
  • The SWLD Quaich for the Liberal Democrat who has done the most to advance diversity within Scotland in the past year
  • The Robin McSkimming Award presented by East Dunbartonshire Liberal Democrats to the person who has done most for their community
  • The Russell Johnston Award presented by Argyll & Bute Liberal Democrats for Best Conference Speech
  • The John Morrison award presented by the Office Bearers for outstanding leadership/dedication/success in local government
  • The Sheila Tennant award presented by LYS for an outstanding contribution from an LYS member

The decision on each award will be made at Conference. You can nominate by post or email (to [email protected]) by 18th March (10th March for Rae Michie Quaich) or at Conference itself. So, if you think there’s someone who has done loads for the party and should be recognised for it, get nominating.

The agenda for Scottish Conference is available here. There’s going to be a rally at which Nick Clegg will be speaking and policy debates on health, apprenticeships, land reform, the living wage and, controversially, the Assisted Suicide Bill. It’s also interesting to see that the SAOs have all been given a slot on the agenda to talk about their work.
