Sheffield City Hall was the venue for the NHS Talent Yorkshire and Humberside awards. The praise pod team was up for the category 'partnership working' and won through to be considered for the National finals in July. The event was fantastic and made everyone feel special; fantastic organisation from Angela Dunn and colleagues, spot on hosting from Duncan Wood and Margaret Edwards, and to cap it all a brilliant piece of videography from Martin Hollingsworth to use a set of out-takes to bring the house down.
Many things stuck in my mind, perhaps none more so than Calderdale A&E consultant Andrew Lockey's idea to take some time out of theatre and into a school to make a promo video about wearing seat belts. Net result; 30% reduction in fatal RTA's. 'Thinking out of the box' is a well-overused saying these days, but this is the kind of inspired thing that others can help others be brave and take risks to make things better for everyone.
Here's looking forward to July and hearing about more inspiring projects.
