Moorfields’ Stars 2022 finalists announced

Moorfields’ Stars is our annual event to formally recognise and celebrate the achievements and outstanding work delivered by many of our excellent staff and the contribution made by volunteers.

A record breaking 585 nominations were submitted this year to recognise the work of many individuals and teams going over and above their role for the trust.

Judging panels, formed of representative staff from across the trust and patients, met to do the very difficult job of shortlisting the finalists. 

The winner of each award will be announced at the Moorfields’ Stars awards ceremony, on Wednesday 28 September 2022, and results will be published after.

Congratulations and good luck to all the finalists and thank you to Moorfields Eye Charity for supporting these awards.
