Staff Recognition Awards 2021

The awards invite staff and patients to tell us about members of staff and teams who have gone above and beyond their role to make a difference.

Congratulations to all teams, individual members of staff, volunteers and fundraisers who were nominated, and thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate

For images from our 2021 celebration event please see Facebook OUHospitals or follow hashtag #OUHAwards21 on X / Twitter.
