THE ALAN WALKER PRIZE
AN ANNUAL PRIZE FOR OUTSTANDING CONTRIBUTION TO
BRITISH SOCIAL GERONTOLOGY
The British Society of Gerontology have established the Alan Walker
Prize in recognition of the massive contribution Alan has made to
British and international Social Gerontology. It is our intention and
with his support and encouragement, to make this an annual competitive
award from nominations made by the members of the British Society of
Gerontology
The award will be made to an individual or organisation that, in the
opinion of the judges, has made a significant and lasting contribution
to British Social Gerontology. This might be through for example,
campaigning, teaching, lobbying, service provision, fundraising,
journalism and research. In particular, the award should be made to an
individual or organisation that has made a significant impact on the
policy process and helped improve the quality of life of older people.
Nominees do not have to be current members of the Society. The judges'
decision will be final and they will not enter into any communication
about that decision.
Nomination forms can be downloaded from the Society's website at
