Need to Know wins national award

The Trust’s Need to Know site, the first-of-its-kind for ambulance staff, has won a national Award of Excellence from the Institute of Internal Communications.

The site will now be put forward to win the best in class award at a ceremony in London on 26^th September.

Internal Communications Manager Tara Crabtree, said: “Developing the site took a lot of hard work and creativity and it’s really satisfying to see that come to fruition; now we have a 24/7 rolling news channel that’s more interactive, engaging and accessible – and most importantly it works better for our staff.”

Chief Executive Anthony Marsh added: “I am very proud of the team for winning this award, and for coming up with an easy-to-use but dynamic and effective way of communicating with staff.”
