Healthcare firm Philips has confirmed the renewal of its sponsorship of the society’s annual Radiography Awards, which recognise and celebrate inspiring radiographers.
Every year in November, the society celebrates the stand-out individuals, teams and students from across the UK who have made a positive difference to patient care, service delivery or those who have excelled academically.
Philips, which has sponsored the Radiography Awards since 2019, is devoted to improving people’s health and wellbeing through innovation.
Industry partnership
Richard Evans, CEO of the SoR, said: “Every year the Radiography Awards programme recognises inspiring practice by SoR members. We recognise individuals and teams in clinical practice, radiography learners and educators.
“SoR members are rightly proud of colleagues who make a real difference for their patients and their workplaces and of those who promote our profession. The support of Philips as sponsors for the awards ensures that we can continue to celebrate the very best in diagnostic imaging and radiotherapy every year.”
He added that Philips’ sponsorship demonstrates the role industry can play as partners – both in front-line services and at strategic level.
“We are very grateful that Philips has committed to continuing their sponsorship,” Richard emphasised.
