EEAST awards: nominations now open

The second awards ceremony of the year is being held in November – and staff and volunteers can play their part in honouring colleagues for outstanding work and support this year.

Held in Hertfordshire on 14^th November, the awards will include Chief Officer Commendations, Hidden Gem awards, and six categories of outstanding contribution across the region nominated by senior staff.

A special Staff Choice Award has also been introduced for all staff and volunteers to make nominations for a colleague(s) and we urge everyone to take part!

To nominate someone for this award and for more information on the awards service itself, you can complete the web form here (also available on East24). You need to nominate by 20^th September to allow for three finalists to be chosen and invited to the ceremony. There is no limit to how many people you nominate, and if they’re successful, you will be invited too – so keep the date free just in case!

Those who are recognised in other categories - listed below - will be sent an invitation later in September.

Good luck to everyone!
