The service user judges are integral in the selection of the finalists and winners, and are always a welcome support to our head judges to help discuss all the nominations and decide on the top 5 for their category.
This year the judging day will take place at Colwick Hall in Nottingham on Thursday 30th June, which will give the judges the opportunity to look around the venue where the awards will be held later this year.
Judges will be required to attend from 10:00am and the exact schedule of the day will be shared with successful applicants. We are asking interested service users / residents to write a short paragraph detailing why they would like to be a judge. This should be sent to [email protected] by a member of staff, along with details of the applicants initials, current ward/service name and the number of staff that would be required to accompany them on the day. All judges must be supported by a member of staff.
Places are limited and applications will be reviewed following the deadline on Friday 10th June and successful applicants will be notified by Tuesday 14th June. Judges will be invited to the awards ceremony on Wednesday 14th September.
Staff are invited to download and print the poster to display within services to advertise to those who may be interested. For queries, contact [email protected].
