A fertility team serving Shropshire has won a Public Recognition Award following a public vote.

A fertility team at the Shropshire and Mid Wales Fertility Centre has been recognised for its outstanding care after winning a Public Recognition Award. The honour was presented at the Moving to Excellence Awards, hosted by the NHS group serving Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin. The award celebrates teams or individuals who have made a remarkable contribution and demonstrated exceptional compassion and dedication in their roles.

The fertility team received 1,021 votes in the public category, the only award category open to nominations from patients, families and members of the public. The awards ceremony took place at the Telford International Centre and was the first held by the NHS group, an alliance between Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust and The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust.

Professor Jason Kasraie, head of fertility services, said it was 'a huge honour for the team to win the public vote' and that being recognised had provided 'a huge morale boost for all of the staff'. He added that the multidisciplinary team 'go the extra mile on a daily basis to ensure the highest quality care for our patients'. Jo Williams, group chief executive, said the public recognition award was 'incredibly special' because nominations come directly from patients and communities.
