Portsmouth North: I’m looking for local healthcare heroes to put forward for national recognition at the 2024 NHS Parliamentary Awards.

The NHS Parliamentary Awards recognises the outstanding contribution of NHS staff, volunteers and other heath and care sectors. For the past 6 years, it has given members of parliament the chance to showcase what amazing people working in their constituency in the healthcare profession.

The NHS Parliamentary Awards are designed to celebrate the work of all NHS staff and those who work alongside them to improve and join up care in their communities.

Together, we are looking for outstanding nominees who have innovated, impressed, and made a real difference to how the health and care system provides care for patients. Nominees could be an individual, a team, or an entire organisation

Nominees don’t have to be working within the NHS – these awards are for anyone working for or with the NHS towards the shared goal of delivering health and high-quality care, now and for future generations. Neither do they have to be in frontline or clinical roles. Around 60% of the NHS workforce perform vital but often-unseen roles, ensuring that the NHS is equipped to meet the needs of patients. Many more people support patients in other ways, such as via their local Healthwatch, social enterprises or charities.

Nominations will open on Thursday, 29 February 2024 and close at midnight on Friday, 19 April 2024.
