THE SNP is inviting members and supporters to join them for an evening of entertainment, speeches and celebration at the National St Andrew’s Awards Dinner.
The party’s annual event is to be held on November 16 at the DoubleTree by Hilton on Cambridge Street in Glasgow.
This year the event will include awards in five categories: Branch of the Year, Councillor of the Year, Parliamentarian of the Year, Activist of the Year and Lifetime Achievement of the Year.
Party members and Independence Magazine subscribers can enter one nomination for each category by August 20.
The awards will be presented by First Minister Nicola Sturgeon.

Tickets will be mailed out from the end of August onwards with a letter explaining how to pay.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
