20th Bright Ideas in Health Awards

The Bright Ideas in Health Awards is now celebrating its 20th year.

The Awards are organised by Health Innovation North East and North Cumbria (HI NENC).

The Awards celebrate the achievements of individuals and teams working within the NHS, including those in primary and secondary care, universities, voluntary and community sector organisations, regional businesses and organisations working within the health sector.

Entrants will have risen to the challenge of telling us how, and where, they believe that the services provided to patients can be improved, either through a technical innovation or through better service delivery.

Everyone can play a part in developing innovative solutions to the healthcare challenges that we face every day. The competition, depending upon the category, is open to the groups stated in the North East of England and North Cumbria.

Winners across 14 award categories will be announced during the awards ceremony.

This year’s headline sponsor is the North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board.

Other sponsors include, Sintons, South Tyneside and Sunderland NHS Foundation Trust and Boost.

The closing date for entries is 11.59pm on Friday, 27 November 2026.

Awards ceremony will take place on Thursday 18 March 2027.
