After over 180 nominations for staff, volunteers and teams the staff award judging panel have now met and after serious deliberation shortlisted in each of this year’s LPFT Recognition Award categories.
Thank you to everyone who nominated someone this year, the response was truly overwhelming and certainly demonstrates that we have some exceptionally hard working staff across the Trust. Everyone that was nominated will receive a certificate of thanks after the official awards ceremony has taken place in March.
The judging panel had some very hard decisions to make from the wealth of nominations and information they received and everyone shortlisted should feel extremely proud of their achievements so far. They have all now received an invitation to attend this year’s Making a difference every day’ award ceremony taking place on Thursday 5 March, where the winner of each category will be formally announced. Good luck to all.
