Throughout his career, Scott has achieved significant recognition for his work in broadcasting and beyond.

Scott was also named the METRO LGBT+ Advocate Winner at the British LGBT Awards. Beyond broadcasting, Scott has demonstrated a strong commitment to charitable causes, including participating in a demanding Comic Relief trek across the Kaisut Desert in Kenya, as well as featuring in the documentary ‘The World’s Worst Place to be Gay?’ where he explored the harsh treatment of LGBT people of Uganda.
