Volunteer achievement award

Volunteer achievement awards

There will be four categories of awards: communications; working with children and young people; fundraising and working to improve the quality of diabetes care and services.  The awards will be presented at the gala dinner on the Saturday evening. Any volunteer within Diabetes UK can be nominated for an award. This recognition can be awarded to either individuals or groups.

Nominations are welcomed from volunteers themselves, healthcare professionals and Diabetes UK staff.

The closing date for nominations is Monday 28 July 2008.  Contact the Volunteer Development team on 020 7424 1000 for a nomination form.

The H G Wells Award

The award is to mark an outstanding individual contribution in a voluntary capacity to improving the lives of people with diabetes, or to working towards a future without diabetes. The 2008 winner will be chosen from the Volunteer achievement award winners.
