Staff Recognition Awards 2023

The awards invite staff and patients to tell us about members of staff and teams who have gone above and beyond their role to make a difference.

More than 1,800 nominations were received for the OUH Staff Recognition Awards 2023 - congratulations to all teams, individual members of staff, volunteers and fundraisers who were nominated, and thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate.

The winners in each category were announced at our Staff Recognition Awards ceremony, held at Oxford Town Hall on Thursday 6 July 2023 - the week in which the NHS celebrated its 75th birthday.

Oxford Hospitals Charity generously supports the Staff Recognition Awards and we are grateful for their help which makes this important celebration of staff achievements possible.
