The search is on for the stars of the housing sector in Kent and Medway with the opening of nominations for the Kent Housing Group Excellence Awards 2025. 

The annual awards – the Oscars for our regional housing sector – celebrate the very best projects, professionals and partnerships across housing in the county.

With 12 categories, there’s a real opportunity to showcase the work you do, to shine a light on the places you have created, the projects that make a real difference and the people without whom it would not happen. 

Award nominations close on 28 March and only KHG members can nominate. The award category descriptions and nomination forms are available on the KHG website KHG Excellence Awards 2025 - Kent Housing Group
