Nominate a super sibling

Our Annual Siblings Awards recognise the amazing unsung heroes of the Dravet Syndrome community

There are two award categories;

‘Super Sibling Awards’ for siblings from 5 - 15 years old - We encourage nominations to be made when the sibling is old enough to understand and fully enjoy the award. Remember, that they cannot be nominated again until they’re 16 years old.

‘Sibling Recognition Awards’ for siblings 16 years old and above - We’re always keen to receive nominations from older teenagers and adult siblings – DSUK may not have been around when these siblings were younger and we like to acknowledge that siblings continue to be a big part of the lives of those with Dravet Syndrome as they grow older.

Closing date for the 2024 nominations is Friday 6th December 2024.

Awards will be announced on Friday 13th December 2024 on our social media channels and winners will be contacted directly.

Awarded siblings receive a Gift Voucher and a Certificate.
