NHSP Sponsors Brand New​ ‘Promoting Diversity and Inclusion in Communications’​ Award​

NHS Professionals are excited to announce that we are partnering with the NHS Confederation and NHS Providers, in association with The Centre for Health Communications Research, to sponsor the NHS Communicate Award category: ‘Promoting Diversity and Inclusion in Communications’.  This award is designed to recognise the achievements of communicators across the NHS who have delivered effective work that champions equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI).

As the leading provider of flexible workers to the NHS, NHS Professionals support and celebrate our incredible workforce of 180,000 individuals who come from a wide range of backgrounds. Supporting this new award aligns to our belief in the value of EDI-led communications that benefit staff experience and patient care.

Speaking about the awards, NHSP CEO Nicola McQueen said: “In what has been an exceptional year for the NHS, I am delighted that we have the opportunity to celebrate teams and individuals who have delivered highly effective, diversity focused communications. These will, undoubtedly, have supported delivery for the NHS at a local, regional, and national level, and reached the widest possible audience of frontline workers and patients. We look forward to judging the entries.”

The awards ceremony will be held on Thursday 16th. For more information about the event, please visit the website here: https://www.nhsconfed.org/events/nhs-communicate-awards-2021.
