A key part of National Apprenticeship Week, our annual GHC Apprenticeship Week Awards provide us with a great opportunity for us to celebrate and acknowledge the commitment and contribution of all our apprentices and T-level students – as well as those who support them, including managers, mentors and our Apprenticeship and Widening Participation team.
This year we have four categories of award – these cover both our clinical and non-clinical colleagues and, for the first year, we introduced our first T-Level award. Due to the high standard of candidates this year, each award has a winner alongside an individual that the judges felt deserved special recognition.
We’re delighted to announce the winners of our annual GHC National Apprenticeship Week Awards 2025…

Congratulations to everyone who has been nominated this year – it is an achievement to be short-listed, and we are proud of you all.
We’d also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has taken the time to write a nomination – and to the judges who had the difficult job of selecting the winners this year.
