It's all getting exciting, as this coming Friday, 29th May, our Chief Executive, Rob Aitchison, will announce all of our fabulous CHuFT Awards finalists.

We had 453 nominations, which makes it yet another record-breaking year. So today we'd like to say congratulations to everyone who has been nominated, and thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate a colleague or team. 

Everyone who has been nominated should be proud. They or a team have made an impression for their amazing work to support our patients and each other.

A full list of nominees for 2026 is attached below - the question is, who do you know? 

And don't forget that everyone can enter our Golden Ticket ballot until Monday, 1st June. There is also a button on the right-hand side of the intranet homepage to enter.

Please note: some colleagues or teams were nominated in the same category twice. In this case their entry has been included once.
