If you’ve ever wanted to thank a member of our team, now’s the time to celebrate and recognise the impact they made on you or your family.

From birth to end of life our teams are there to support you. We want to hear about those staff who go above and beyond for their patients; the healthcare heroes that went out of their way to give you a good experience of the NHS. They could be a clinical member of the team, like a nurse, doctor or allied health professional, or they could be a vital member of our support services – from the admin teams and receptionists, to cleaners and porters. Whether they helped you through a tough time, or a major milestone in your life, we want to hear from you.

Golden Stars is the annual staff awards ceremony for NHS Humber Health Partnership, which employs more than 19,000 staff working across two trusts, five hospitals and community services, in both clinical and non-clinical roles.

Each year as part of these celebrations, we invite nominations from patients and their families for the Healthcare Heroes Award. Whether you’ve been a patient or visitor at Hull, Scunthorpe, Grimsby, Castle Hill, or Goole hospitals, or within our community services, we want to hear about the staff or teams who made a real difference to your experience. From compassionate individuals to outstanding teams, your nomination is a meaningful way to say thank you.

The winner of the Healthcare Heroes Award, along with 14 other categories, will be announced at the Golden Stars 2026 ceremony on Friday 3 July.

Don’t delay, nominate someone today.
