You’re a Star Awards
Nominate your healthcare hero today
Every year we celebrate the achievements made by teams, projects, services and individual members of staff through You’re a Star Awards. This year we are giving you the opportunity to nominate a member of staff or team who deserve an extra special thank you.
Service users and carers can nominate a winner for the Working Together and the Making a Difference categories. They are for any person or team who you think has shown a real commitment to involving service users and carers. They are also for staff who you feel have gone the extra mile to improve the lives of others.
Community groups also get a chance to vote for those who have shown devotion to care with an emphasis on working with the community in the Working with Communities award.
You can nominate any employee or team from Bradford District Care Trust. This also includes people who work in the corporate and support functions (e.g. library and catering). People who do not work for the Care Trust CANNOT be nominated.
The deadline for entries is 02.09.2009
People who vote for a team that is shortlisted will be invited to a ceremony at the National media Museum on Tuesday 1 December. For further information please contact Sam Hirst, Acting Communications Manager, 01274 228174.
