The Service or Team Award for an Outstanding Contribution to Disability Services 2026 

The National Association of Disability Practitioners annually recognises one disability or inclusivity team for their contribution to making a positive difference to the experiences of disabled students and/or disabled staff in the post-compulsory education sector. This could involve a research project undertaken in the last two years or for excellent work in supporting disabled students and colleagues at their Institution. 

The aim for this award is that it may be awarded to any disability or inclusivity team regardless of their size or location. However, at least 50% of the team, including the Team Manager, must be NADP members.  

NADP members are invited to submit nominations for this award to a panel selected from the Board of Directors.  

Deadline is midday Wednesday 11th March 2026
