Whether you are working in a major centre or providing an MS service in a rural community setting, the QuDoS in MS programme is a chance to gain recognition for the difference you make to people with MS or to nominate others for their great work.
Take a look at the 2022 categories to decide which one is most appropriate.
There is no limit on the number of categories you may enter. You can also nominate yourself and/or colleagues for individual and team categories provided the criteria are met.
Judges reserve the right to move your entry/nomination into another category should it be deemed more relevant.
Judging takes place in January 2023.
Why Enter?
The QuDoS in MS – Recognising Quality in the Delivery of Multiple Sclerosis – programme is a fantastic opportunity to gain recognition for the valuable contribution you make to the quality of life and experience of care for those with MS.
The event provides an opportunity to both showcase your own work and learn about innovative services and projects in the UK, as well as networking with NHS healthcare professionals, patient groups and industry.
Hints and tips
DO
- Get your point across quickly and simply – judges will be reviewing a number of entries.
- Ensure your entry/person you are nominating fits into the relevant category – please refer to the Contact Us page if you need assistance.
- If you are included in the pre-selection process and are asked to provide supporting materials (videos, pictures, PDFs etc.) please ensure they are relevant to your entry.
- Consider the judges – put yourself in the shoes of the person reading your entry/nomination. Judges are looking for initiatives that make them think “That’s a project I would have been proud to be associated with” or “That person/team has made a valuable contribution in the field of MS and deserves recognition.”
- Attention to detail – Ensure you proofread your entry form before submitting it and ask a “fresh pair of eyes” to review your entry before you submit.
DON’T
- Assume the judges know the ins and outs of your project/are familiar with the work of the person or people you are nominating – ensure you explain enough to help them understand, but not so much as to complicate your entry/nomination.
- Ignore the word count –please do not exceed.
Presentation Ceremony
The recognition ceremony evening will be held on Saturday 25th March 2023 from 6 – 9:30pm at the Jury Inn, Hinckley Island, Leicestershire prior to the MS Trust conference on Sunday 26th March. Please save the date!
