Dedicated to honouring healthcare’s unsung heroes, the national MyPorter and MyCleaning Awards are back for their seventh year, with extended categories to recognise a broader range of achievements and celebrate even more exceptional individuals. Organised in association with NHS England, these awards celebrate the unwavering care, dedication and excellence shown in vital healthcare portering and domestic services roles every day.
Nominating is via a simple online form. The process will remain open until November 27, 2026, after which entries will be reviewed by an independent judging panel made up of respected figures from across healthcare. The judges will be looking for individuals or teams within healthcare portering or domestic services who have gone above and beyond and are deserving of special recognition.
Judging will take place during December, with shortlisted nominees announced ahead of public voting for the People's Choice Award.
