The 2010 Advancing Healthcare Awards are organised by Chamberlain Dunn, the publishers of Health Workforce Bulletin and Employing Allied Health Professionals & Healthcare Scientists.These Awards, now in their fourth year, recognise and reward projects and professionals that lead innovative healthcare practice and make a real difference to patients’ lives in the healthcare science and allied
health professions.

Supported by all four UK health departments, NHS Employers, Unite the Union, and the AHP Federation the awards are unique in that they are UK-wide and cover all these professional and specialist groups whose achievements so often go unnoticed.
