Category criteria

Lancashire businesses continue to face and meet new challenges while servicing customer needs and securing new opportunities.

Every business has a story to tell, and these are the stories Red Rose Awards wants to hear and share.

Tell us yours!

The winner of this award will be providing health and/or wellbeing services and solutions. It may be at a corporate or business level; it may be direct to the general public; it could be through private, public or third sector channels.

And while providing health and care outcomes to your clients, you will be operating a good business strategy.

You may be a product or service provider, with physical premises or an online offer, and you may operate in the public or private sector. The key is that your work benefits health and wellbeing, while also being a sustainable, successful business.

Notes:

Businesses and organisations can enter this award if they provide health, care or wellbeing services to customers or patients
Judges are looking for health or care organisations that can demonstrate a good business model and, where appropriate, innovation
This award is open to organisations of all sizes but it’s not about how big you are, it’s about the work you’ve done and how you are developing
If you wish to share your work in supporting the health and wellbeing of your workforce but do not operate in the health and care section, please enter the Employer of the Year Award
