The London Division are happy to announce nominations and registrations are now open for our 2024 Awards.

These are the third London Division RCPsych awards. We are hoping to uncover, acknowledge and celebrate the work being done in London, to help improve mental health care/psychiatric care and the experience of care for people in London. We are looking for 'Real Heroes' who enhance the experiences of patients as well as the provision of services. 

We are therefore not just seeking research or academia, we are also looking for more patient and clinical-focused work, exceptional workplace examples, how one’s work has improved the care of patients and carers, and how one has improved collaborative teamwork.

• Community engagement work
• Collaborative working with colleagues, patient and carers, external stakeholders
• Improving patients, carers, colleagues’ experiences within a mental health setting
• Improving processes in the provision of mental health services 
• Audit
• QI Project
• Research
• Positive role modelling and adapting to challenging circumstances.
