CPFT Staff Recognition Scheme

On the third Wednesday of each month, the wider executive team awards a prize to the CPFT staff member of the month and team of the month. This new award is open to all staff to receive and anyone can nominate – from inside and outside CPFT.

Why

• We want to encourage you to be proud and to shout about your successes
• We want to hear about your ideas for innovation so that we can support you in developing them
• We want to recognise people who go that extra mile; our unsung heroes
• We want to see how our staff are living the CPFT values and making them real

CPFT values
