We are extremely pleased to announce that we won the Finance Team of the Year award at yesterday’s Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA) West Midlands Branch Annual Conference.
This award recognises the contribution that our Finance Team has made in the last twelve months to promoting and improving teamwork, innovation, collaboration, transformation and governance in the NHS finance community.
Tony Matthews, Director of Finance and Commerce at the Midlands and Lancashire Commissioning Support Unit, said:
“I am delighted that our Finance Team has been recognised by the HFMA and to win such a prestigious award as HFMA West Midlands Finance Team of the Year.
“To have been recognised by the HFMA in the West Midlands in amongst the many other brilliant NHS finance departments and to have been singled out is fabulous and recognition of the hard work and dedication the team displays each and every day for the NHS clients we support.”
In a year with many challenges, the team kept their high spirits and committed dedication to improving their staff, processes, performance and sharing best practice with the wider NHS.
With over 200 delegates at the event, two awards were presented by the West Midlands Branch of HFMA, which promotes the highest standards and innovation in financial management and governance across the UK health economy through its local and national networks. It is a huge honour to be recognised by this award – well done to our colleagues!
