Digital Champion Award

Do you work with someone who champions the use of technology to improve and enhance the work that you do? Is there an individual who has passionately promoted digital ways of working in your hospice?

Celebrate their work with a nomination for the Digital Champion Award! 

We are interested in hearing about individuals at a Hospice UK member organisation that have encouraged and supported others to use technology or digital tools and techniques to: 

• Identify or better understand and/or solve a problem (or be progressing towards solving a problem). 
• Improve quality or efficiency 
• Reduce barriers and improve access 

The technology or digital tools and techniques don’t need to be cutting edge, but how they were used may be innovative for your organisation.   

Please consider the following information when making your nomination:

What was the problem the Champion was trying to solve and how did they approach it?

• Why was technology/digital the right approach? 
• Why was this approach innovative for the organisation? 
• Did the Champion work independently or in collaboration with others? 
• If a particular technology or digital tool was used, was there a reason for choosing this instead of something else? 

What was the impact?

• How did the Champion engage other people in the use of technology or digital ways of working? This could be colleagues, service users, customers, donors or others. 
• What was the benefit and how was this measured?  
• Who benefitted? 

How replicable is the work?

• Could the approach be applied by other parts of the organisation or other hospices?

Before making your nomination, please read our submission criteria and general guidance.
