Top Fundraiser Award

The 27th National Care Awards will once again feature a special category to honour the exceptional efforts of our fundraisers in 2025. This is the third year we will be hosting The Care Workers’ Charity Top Fundraiser Awards; this accolade is designed to spotlight individuals and organisations who have gone above and beyond in raising funds to support the vital work of The Care Workers’ Charity.  

The two categories are: 

• Top Individual Fundraiser Award: Open to individuals who have raised over £500 for The Care Workers’ Charity outside of their working role.
• Top Organisation Fundraiser Award: For teams or organisations that have raised over £1,000 for The Care Workers’ Charity.

All fundraising, that has been paid to The Care Workers’ Charity, will be counted from 1st November 2024 and will close at midnight on Thursday 31st October 2025.

Everyone who fundraises for The Care Workers’ Charity is eligible, and we encourage you to highlight the remarkable efforts of those making a difference. 

To ensure we have counted your efforts, please read the criteria below carefully and email info@thecwc.org.uk with the following information: 

1. The category you are entering (Individual / Organisation). 
2. Name and contact information for the nominator and the Top Fundraiser if different. 
3. Confirmation of when the fundraising took place (between 1st November 2024 and 31st October 2025). 
4. The total amount raised – please provide a link to the fundraising platform or evidence of the donation being paid. 

You can submit nominations for multiple events throughout 2025, as long as you can provide evidence of the full fundraising total being transferred to The Care Workers’ Charity. 

The CWC Top Fundraiser Award winners will be revealed at the 27th National Care Awards, set to take place in London in November 2025. For more information about the awards ceremony, visit https://nationalcareawards.com/.
