Health and care champion awards 2025

Summary

The annual GM awards have plenty of opportunities for the primary care workforce.

The Greater Manchester Health and Care Champion Awards 2025 are now open!

Back for their sixth year, they are the only Greater Manchester-wide awards for our whole health and care workforce.

Organised by NHS Greater Manchester, with support from Andy Burnham, the Mayor of Greater Manchester, categories include Community Champion, Volunteer of the Year and Lifetime Achievement, along with Green Initiative of the Year, a new category for 2025.

The awards are open to all individuals or teams, paid or unpaid, who work in the health or care sector in Greater Manchester or through broader work to help improve the health and wellbeing of others.

Nominations can be completed by anyone who wishes to see an individual or team’s hard work recognised.

Last year’s winners from primary care included Dr Vikas Gupta, PCN Clinical Director, Denton PCN (Leadership Champion), Salford Primary Care Together Inclusion Service (Team of the Year) and Matthew Coles, Nurse Associate at Tower Family Healthcare (Mayor’s Special Recognition Award).

Nominations close on Tuesday 11 March.
