Our Delivering Social Value Award is to recognise the contribution that the built environment has on people's lives. This category will assess construction projects that have had a social, economic and environmental impact in the UK. It is for a built project that can demonstrate it has had a measurably positive effect on end users, a local community or a targeted group. The judges will be looking for schemes that inspire others and demonstrate how construction can bring about positive change by creating healthier, safer and more resilient communities. Entrants need to demonstrate they have engaged with the local community from an early stage in the project.

The award category follows as part of Building’s Social Value Campaign, which aims to shine a spotlight on innovative ways of working and projects with proven outcomes. The project must have been built and completed in the last three years and is open to all members of a project team.
