The Royal Society for Public Health (RSPH) Health & Wellbeing Awards is now open to entries. Established in 2007, the Health & Wellbeing Awards is now the UK’s premier awards scheme for promoting health and wellbeing.
The Awards recognise and celebrate a wide range of activities, policies and strategies that empower communities and individuals, improve the population’s health and address the wider social determinants of health.
The assessment criteria are based on the principles of the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion and subsequent international declarations which call for action to achieve ‘Health for All’.
The Health & Wellbeing Awards 2019 will close for entries 25 April 2019.
Those interested can request an application pack.
