In order to nominate someone, you must be aged 18 years or over and a UK resident (including Channel Islands and the Isle of Man) and not be a 大象传媒 employee, employee of any of its affiliates, close relative of any such employees or connected to these Awards directly or through a close relative.

2. Any individual (either solely or as part of a project in the mental health project category) aged 18 years or over or, in the case of the mental health project category, a group or organisation is eligible to be nominated, except 大象传媒 employees, employees of any of its affiliates, close relatives of any such employees or anyone connected to these Awards either directly or through a close relative. Proof of age, identity and eligibility may be requested.

3. Nominations can be submitted via the website: from 22 November 2022 at 21:00 to midnight on 31 January 2023. Any nominations received after this will not be accepted.

4. If your entry is shortlisted the 大象传媒 will need permission from the nominee. You will be required to provide contact information for your nominee(s), should they be shortlisted. The 大象传媒 will then contact the nominee to get their consent that they agree to be entered for the award. The nominee(s) will be told that you were the person nominating them.

5. In the event of your nomination being shortlisted the production team will be in contact with you. If your entry is considered for broadcast, anonymity cannot be guaranteed but in some circumstances family names of the nominator will not need to be used. This will only be discussed by the production team, with the nominator in the event of shortlisting.

6. The criteria to qualify for nomination are as follows and the actions for which the nomination is being made should have occurred sometime between 20 November 2018 and 21 November 2022.

The three categories are:

i) A member of your family, friend, colleague or boss who has helped you the most with respect to understanding and supporting your mental health condition.

ii) The mental health professional who helped you most.

iii) The mental health project that has helped you most – either through online attendance or in person; definition of project is a discrete project and not part of "conventional therapy". If the project has closed within the last four years (from the date of nominations open, above) it can still be nominated if organisers / individuals are willing to talk about the project.

7. Some nominations may be read out on air with interviews. These uses of nominations will have no bearing on and be entirely separate from the judging process. However all nominees must be willing to be interviewed as a condition of their nomination.

8. The 大象传媒 Radio 4 "All in the Mind" team may contact both the nominator and nominee to verify facts and/or events and whether the relevant permissions have been obtained. This should not be interpreted as anything other than an information gathering exercise.

9. Further on-going research may be undertaken by the 大象传媒 All in the Mind team. The nominee and nominator may be contacted and asked for relevant contacts to assist this research. The 大象传媒 reserves the right to disqualify a nominee if such contacts are not provided.

10. The judging panel will consist of a panel of mental health professionals, mental health campaigners and service users. Judging will take place in March/April 2023. Nominators may submit several entries across all categories but only one of their nominees can be a winner and can only enter each category once. Nominees may be nominated for more than one category but they may only win in one category.

11. The winners will be publicly announced on 大象传媒 Radio 4's "All in the Mind", online and at the Awards Event at a date to be confirmed in June 2023. Winners will be expected to accept the award in person on the day. The person who nominated the winner is also expected to be present during the announcement. The 大象传媒 will provide suitable accommodation and/or travel as deemed necessary. For the avoidance of doubt no other fees, costs or expenses will be provided by the 大象传媒.

12. The 大象传媒's decision as to the shortlist and winners is final. No correspondence relating to the awards will be entered into.

13. Each of the winners will receive an "All in the Mind" Award. There are no prizes, no cash alternative and the award cannot be sold or transferred in any circumstances.

14. Nominees must agree to take part in any post-award publicity if required.

15. Winners and their nominators will be recorded for a radio programme with the intention of broadcasting those contributions on radio, as well as using them on all other platforms including online and TV.

The 大象传媒 reserves the right to: (i) vary these Rules, including but not limited to the opening and closing times of the awards nominations period; (ii) disqualify any nominee who breaches the rules, has acted fraudulently in any way or brings the 大象传媒 into disrepute; and (iii) cancel the awards, at any stage, if in its opinion it is deemed necessary or if circumstances arise outside its control.
