Communications team shortlisted for leading industry award

Our communications team has been shortlisted for a leading industry award.

The team has been shortlisted in the category of Best Event at the Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) Excellence Awards 2021, in recognition of their spectacular staff recognition and health and wellbeing events programme.

From Monday, 28 September 2020, to Wednesday, 30 September 2020, we invited our people to take part in a series of virtual events, which everyone at PAHT could join from their desk or from home. The three day programme – named Events not in a Tent - gave our people the opportunity and platform to share ideas, develop new initiatives, hear about the support and benefits available, and build relationships from across PAHT. The virtual event was in place of the annual Event in a Tent.

Ogechi Emeadi, director of people, organisational development and communications, said: “I am delighted to see our communications team recognised for the amazing work on our Events not in a tent.

“We were overwhelmed by the positive feedback of how beneficial our people found the virtual events, which shone a spotlight on the work of teams across the hospital and their shared experiences, with a focus on their COVID-19 experience.

“I am extremely proud to see the team shortlisted for this accolade - it is testament to our dedication and focus on supporting our people. On behalf of all at PAHT, good luck for the finals and thank you to the communications team for their fantastic contributions.”

The CIPR Excellence Awards 2021 finalists will be announced at an online event in June 2021.
