Judging process

After the nomination window closes at midnight on 26 April 2024, nominations will be sent to NHS England for initial sifting.

Successful nominations at this stage will then go forward to a regional panel of senior regional NHS England representatives.

The regional panels will each choose one nomination in each category to go forward to the national judging panel – these regional champions will be announced on 10 June 2024.

All regional champions will be invited to the national award ceremony in the Queen Elizabeth II Centre, Westminster, London on 1 July 2024 where our winners will be named.
