Celebrating Success Staff Awards 2021

Celebrating Success logo 2021.jpgCelebrating Success is our awards scheme for staff and volunteers. It gives us an opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate the outstanding work of our staff and volunteers who provide high-quality community-based services aimed at supporting people to manage their own health at home and reducing the need for people to go into hospital.

We care for thousands of patients every day and these awards recognise the hard work that goes into preventing health problems from getting worse while compassionately caring for the people of Lincolnshire.
