Following the success of the Caring for Carers Award 2010, The Royal College of General Practitioners in partnership with the Princess Royal Trust for Carers are pleased to announce the Caring for Carers Award 2011.  This Award recognises the excellent work of GP practices in Northern Ireland in identifying and supporting carers.

 

GPs and their practice teams are nominated by patients and there will be an award for the winner of the regional final in Northern Ireland as well as an overall UK winner. The award will take the form of a certificate signed by The Princess Royal and a commemorative plaque for display in the surgery.

 

The winner(s) and their nominator will also be invited to the annual RCGP Northern Ireland Annual Awards Gala Dinner which will be held at the Dunadry Hotel on 26 November.

 

Please find enclosed a poster to promote this Award.  We would be grateful if you would display the poster in a prominent position within the surgery and encourage nominations for this Award.

Closing date for entries is 30 June 2011
