4 Staff across the trust were recently recognised for their stellar achievements over the past twelve months at the group RFL staff Oscars. The night was the culmination of site celebrations, with the group awards at the Emirates stadium, kindly supported by the Royal Free charity, announcing the group-wide winners in 14 categories. Speaking at the event, which was attended by over 300 staff, chair of the RFL, Mark Lam said it was a privilege to be a part of the trust. “There were over 900 nominations from across the trust for the Oscars awards this year, which was the highest number of nominations ever received and it’s so special to be here to recognise everything you have achieved this year.” Chief executive Peter Landstrom reflected on the past year for the RFL, and touched on the recently launched five-year trust clinical strategy. “Every single one of us at every site and in every department has a part to play – whether we’re booking patients into their appointments, welcoming them when they arrive at our buildings, offering them vital care and treatment, ensuring we stick to our budgets, or checking in on our colleagues. “The RFL Oscars is an opportunity for us to take time out to say thank you to all our staff – not just the winners from our site awards who join us this evening – who make this organisation a wonderful place to work.” Each year the Royal Free Charity supports the awards, with chief executive of the charity Jon Spiers saying: “We sponsor these awards every year because it’s really important to us that you are recognised for the extraordinary work you do. “We know from the response to our fundraising appeals that these things are also really important to our local communities. It’s thanks to our supporters’ generosity that we can do what we do to help you, your colleagues and your patients.” Winners of the group clinical team of the year award: BH and CFH paediatric diabetes team Celebrations at the Emirates for our group Oscars winners
