So whether you are a GP, a hospital doctor, a nurse or a dentist, there’s a trophy awaiting the champion in TWO health areas.
If you are an optometrist, therapist, care worker or dental nurse, there’s a category for each of you too.
And then there’s the midwives, pharmacists, unsung heroes and those with long-term achievement.

Nominations can come from all sources.
Members of the public can nominate. So can health workers – either for themself or for a worthy colleague.
In fact, anyone can put a deserving cause in the running for a trophy.
The more the merrier. Let’s make it really hard for the judges by inundating them with top-class submissions.
