We are delighted to offer this fully funded category in partnership with Liverpool John Moores University.

This category is for student led projects, designed to improve the skills and knowledge of others involved in patient or service user care delivery on any health, medical, social care or related programme of study.

The emphasis should be on transforming the learner experience of other students, with the longer-term goal of improving experience for patient and service users. Your project could be at an early or advanced stage or already implemented and showing results.

This category is free to enter.
