OSCARS 2019/20
OSCARS 2020-Take Two – virtual ceremony
The Outstanding Service Contribution and Recognition Scheme (OSCARS) 2020 ceremony was due to take place back in March, but we unfortunately were forced to cancel due to COVID-19. We really wanted to hold this next year, in person, and to give those shortlisted the celebration they deserved and therefore booked a date for March 2021. Unfortunately, it has become clear that a physical event is not going to be possible in the foreseeable future, for which we are again extremely disappointed.
We are however determined to acknowledge and celebrate the fantastic achievements of our shortlisted nominees, especially given the tough months they have had and are still experiencing.
We are therefore holding the OSCARS 2020 - Take Two, virtual ceremony, on 10 December from 2pm via MS Teams. We are very much looking forward to celebrating with our finalists and will announce our winners following this. You can also follow the action on Twitter @nottshealthcare #NottsOSCARS.
We unfortunately had to cancel this year’s Outstanding Service Contribution and Recognition Scheme – our OSCARS in March, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Lifetime Achievement Award
For the Lifetime Achievement Award we have changed the process this year, in line with many other awards ceremonies, and only have one winner of this category, with no other nominations being shortlisted. The winner will be announced at the awards evening on 26 March.
What’s changed for 2019/20?
Changes to the Lifetime Achievement Award as detailed above.
This year we introduced an Environmental Impact Award. Making the Trust as sustainable as possible is a high priority for the organisation and we want to celebrate what individuals and teams are doing to make a difference to this agenda. The Trust is committed to the sustainability agenda and improving and sustaining our environment for today’s generations and those yet to come. We want to celebrate individuals and teams who are going above and beyond to have a positive impact.
We also simplified the nominations forms this year to make them easier for you to fill out.
Winners will be announced on 26 March 2020 at our awards ceremony at the East Midlands Conference Centre.
