Better Care Together Awards – Get your Nominations in Now!

November 8, 2024

Nominations are now open for our Better Care Together awards!

We will be holding an awards ceremony at Hatherley Manor Hotel in March 2025 to celebrate the outstanding commitment, dedication, care, compassion and expertise of our colleagues.

Now is our opportunity to shine a light on the teams, services and individuals across our organisation who make a difference to people’s lives across Gloucestershire every day. We would also like to receive nominations for volunteers, experts by experience, and bank staff – all of whom contribute to the support we give our communities.

There are eight award categories:

  • Working Together
  • Always Improving
  • Respectful and Kind
  • Making a Difference
  • Rising Star
  • Outstanding Achievement
  • Team of the Year
  • Valuing our Communities

A judging panel, chaired by our Trust Chair Graham Russell, will meet to consider the submissions and create a short list in January.

Please remember, all categories are open to nominations from and for volunteers, experts by experience, patients and service users.
