ACR sponsors NHS Trust awards evening

Playing an active role in the community is very much part of our ethos. So it was with pleasure that we co-sponsored the Peterborough and Stamford Hospitals NHS Trust Annual Awards held this week.

And what an eye-opener the evening was.

One hundred NHS Trust employees and volunteers were recognised for their commitment, dedication and hard work during the event. It was the stories you never hear about which touched the guests – including me. There was the volunteer who has played the piano at the hospital chapel’s Sunday morning service for 20 years. The employees who have worked in the hospital, unstintingly, for 25 years. The teams who have worked so well together they have made the kind of difference a group of individuals never could.

Our sponsorship enabled the Trust to put on an event that really helped show its staff and volunteers just how much they are appreciated – not just by the Trust but by the region as a whole.

From our perspective, helping to mark the achievements of so many incredible local people was nothing short of an honour.
