Last week the organisers held a webinar sharing top tips for writing an entry.

Diabetes Nursing Awards event organiser Emily Mayhew said: “We were delighted with the number of participants who attended the webinar last week focusing on top tips for writing an award-winning entry.

“With lots of questions around format, content and types of evidence we have now added the recording to the Diabetes Nursing Awards website for those who were unable to take part.

“The entries we’ve received so far have been inspirational. From what we’ve seen to date this year’s Diabetes Nursing Awards promises to be an incredible occasion so if you’ve not got your entry in yet make sure you do before the deadline!”

Entry to the awards is free, and the event will culminate with a complimentary dinner and awards ceremony hosted by Dr Sarah Jarvis MBE at Thistle Marble Arch London between 8pm and 11pm on Friday, June 7.
