After receiving a record number of entries, the judging for our 2025 awards is now complete. With so many entries of such a high standard, we have increased the shortlist across several of the categories, to enable us to showcase the widest possible diversity of the work that NHS Estates & Facilities teams are involved with, as well as the passion and commitment of individuals who work within those services.
The winners will be announced at the gala dinner during the National Leadership Forum in Telford on the evening of Thursday, May 15.
Please do get behind your teams or colleagues if they’ve made the shortlist, share across social media and celebrate their achievements. It’s great recognition to be nominated for an award, and it’s even better to be shortlisted, especially when the calibre of entries is as high as it has been this year.
For more detail of each of the shortlisted entries, please see the May/June issue of our Pulse magazine.
Thank you to everyone who took the time and effort to submit an entry.
