Local hospitals set to celebrate annual Star Awards tomorrow

Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals (DBTH) will host its annual Star Awards, highlighting the exceptional contributions of local NHS heroes over the past year.

With over 650 nominations submitted, the Trust’s judging panel faced the challenging yet rewarding task of reviewing the incredible stories and achievements shared by Team DBTH throughout the previous 12 months, whittling this longlist down to just 60 or so nominees.

Zoe Lintin, Chief People Officer at DBTH, said: “The DBTH Star Awards is a testament to the dedication and hard work of our colleagues. Each nomination reflects the remarkable contributions made by individuals and teams across our Trust.

“I’m incredibly proud of all our nominees, and I wish the shortlisted individuals the very best of luck. Their efforts make a real difference to the lives of our patients and the smooth running of our services.”

The winners will be announced tomorrow, Thursday 9 October, at the Doncaster Dome. The Trust will be live on Facebook and Twitter throughout the ceremony, providing updates and celebrating our amazing colleagues with the local community.
