2025 awards ceremony

After three successful years of these awards, the Inspire Justice Awards are back and will be returning to the Queen Elizabeth II (QEII) Centre in London in September. We’re looking forward to celebrating incredible people from across the sector, welcoming involvement from leading figures working within justice. The event has previously been attended by the likes of Michelle Jarman-Howe, COO of the Probation Service (HMPPS) and the Lord Chancellor, Alex Chalk and Minister of State for Justice, Heidi Alexander.

Nominations are due to open in late spring, with finalists being announced and invited to attend the ceremony during the summer.

Commenting on the awards, Jon Czul, Head of Consultancy and Research at Skills for Justice, says:

“The Inspire Justice Awards is the only awards programme which celebrates the incredible contributions made by staff working across the entire justice system.

“From policing and prisons to probation, courts and more, the awards recognise the outstanding achievements of the unsung heroes who play a vital role in crime detection, prevention, rehabilitation and protecting public security.

“The Inspire Justice Awards get bigger and better each and every year and we continue to be supported by key organisations and senior figures in the sector.”
