Staff Recognition Awards

More than 2,800 nominations were received for the OUH Staff Recognition Awards 2024.

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 first six categories align with our Trust Values.

We can now reveal the winners in each category, as announced at the Staff Recognition Awards event at Oxford Town Hall on Thursday 5 September 2024.

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.
