Humber and North Yorkshire Cancer Alliance recently presented its inaugural Excellence in Cancer Awards.
The awards were launched in June to celebrate the people working in cancer services in Humber and North Yorkshire for their hard work, innovation and unwavering commitment to deliver the best care for patients possible in the region.
On Thursday, 19th September, the Cancer Alliance revealed the results at its annual conference at Lakeside Conference Centre, York Biotech Campus.
A total of 55 nominations were received in the four award categories: clinical leadership; championing the patient voice; going the extra mile; and quality improvement and innovation.
