Looking forward to
celebrating in Cardiff
and Belfast
It seems like a lifetime ago since we were
celebrating with the finalists of the UK awards
at the Royal Garden Hotel in Kensington, on that
very sunny June afternoon. It was a very special
occasion, beautifully hosted by Nick Hewer,
President of the Royal College of Speech and
Language Therapists, and once again we offer our
congratulations to all of the winners and finalists.
And now we have ahead of us two more special
celebrations in October.
We will be back in Cardiff and Belfast to celebrate
and showcase the important work going on across
the professions in Wales and Northern Ireland.
Once again we broke our records for numbers of
entries received and the shortlisted judges had
a very difficult task to decide on the shortlisted
entries. We’d like to say a very big thank you to all
of our judges - we look forward to seeing you at the
ceremonies soon, along with sponsors, guests and
of course our amazing finalists.
How the Advancing Healthcare
Awards celebrate the work of
allied health professionals and
healthcare scientists.
