Pride of St. Michael's Hospice Awards
In February 2022, St. Michael’s Hospice launched its Pride awards.
The awards have been introduced to recognise those members of staff and volunteers who have demonstrated the core vision and values of the organisation which focus on People, Respect, Integrity, Diversity, and Excellence: PRIDE. You can read more about St. Michael’s Hospice’s Vision and Values here.
They are a celebration of those times where staff and volunteers go above and beyond in their roles, supporting team members and our patients and families. The life of St. Michael’s is made up of so many extraordinary moments of dedication and humanity, these awards are here to shine a light on those and to illustrate the pride all staff and volunteers have in this organisation and the roles they play in its success.
How does it work
- Staff and volunteers are nominated by filling in the form below, emailing HR at hr@stmichaelshospice.org.uk or by filling in one of the cards available around the Hospice and dropping it in the sealed box at reception. The nomination cards are also available in our stores and can be handed into staff to pass to HR.
- All staff and volunteers who are nominated will be informed by email with the text from the nomination.
- Everyone nominated will be listed on our staff intranet pages to celebrate their achievement.
- Once a month, the Senior Leadership Team will review all the nominations and select a monthly winner.
- The winner will receive a certificate, badge acknowledging their contribution to the values of the organisation.
