Alan Kendal is our NTW Solutions Individual of the Year!
Alan always gives 100%. He tries to make life easier for wards and clinical teams, limiting any inconvenience for them. Kind and thoughtful, he has been known to bring selection boxes and Easter eggs to children and young people at Ferndene, as well as gifts for reception staff. His charitable efforts are well-known on the hospital site.
Described as a wonderful person, he genuinely cares about everyone he meets and goes out of his
way to make them smile. One colleague said: “Alan is the epitome of our values, going above and beyond to be caring and compassionate.
The Capital Development Team are our NTW Solutions Team of the Year
The team consistently delivers award-winning mental health buildings, notably Sycamore at Northgate Park, which is the largest single capital project the Trust has ever undertaken. The project was exceptional because of the team’s unwavering dedication throughout the business case, design, construction and commissioning stages.
The small team worked tirelessly with many different stakeholders, while remaining focussed on creating the best possible outcomes for patients and staff. Despite the challenges, the team remained positive throughout.
The team has also been working on developments at Ferndene and has been praised for maintaining a safe environment for the young people on site. Despite multiple changes, the team has remained patient, and everyone is determined to get things right for patients and staff
