Liberty is looking for nominations for its 2015 Human Rights Awards.

Here’s what you need to do by 5pm tonight:

We’re looking for the NGOs, the national campaigners, the local activists, the volunteers or professionals who are working on human rights issues – whether it be inspiring or organising, providing support or challenging misconceptions. Often individuals and organisations work tirelessly and with little recognition – this is our chance to thanks them for all they do, and shine a light on this crucial work.

Past award categories have included Human Rights Lawyer of the Year, Human Rights Young Person of the Year, and our ‘Close to Home’ award, which acknowledges those who battle for the rights and freedoms of their own families, streets and communities. These categories are not fixed so please nominate anyone you believe deserves recognition for their work to protect, promote or broaden understanding of human rights.

Who is eligible?

• Anyone who has made a significant contribution to the promotion or protection of human rights in the UK over the last year.

How do I nominate?

• Nominations should be emailed to [email protected] by 5pm on Friday 17 July 2015.

• Nominations should include the full name and contact details of both the nominee and the nominator and be supported by a brief statement (of no more than 500 words) explaining why you think your nominee deserves an award.

• Please note that all nominations will be judged on their individual merit, and multiple nominations for candidates will not increase their chance of consideration.

• Please confirm the age of anyone you wish to nominate for our Young Person’s Award.

• Nominations may be made by any organisation, group or individual. Self-nomination is not permitted.

Who would you like to nominate? Do it in your lunch break.
