Applause, cheers and standing ovations for the people that make a difference.
The Therapies Awards round off the year and recognise the exceptional work therapists do when caring for our patients, it even celebrates teams that do their bit for the environment.
Over 60 people attended the in-person event with even more joining online to celebrate and support colleagues.
Dr Ryan Kemp, Director of therapies said, “The therapy awards went brilliantly, there was a fantastic energy in the room and lots of laughter and positivity. We are so often doing work that is essential but hard and it’s important we celebrate our colleagues and support them to do work that is challenging. I’m really proud of everyone who was nominated.”
Congratulations to everyone who was celebrated for their work at the awards and everyone who weren’t, CNWL’s therapies staff do exceptional and life changing jobs every day.
