MAMA Academy Awards

Welcome to the MAMA Awards 2024 – Celebrating All of Our Incredible Healthcare Professionals! 

19th November 2024

We are absolutely thrilled to extend our warm invitation to you for our Annual MAMA Award Ceremony this year. This special event aims to celebrate the unwavering dedication and hard work of all healthcare professionals, midwives, student midwives, bereavement midwives, and the entire healthcare team who tirelessly support expectant parents and their babies. 

This award ceremony is a testament to our heartfelt desire to honour and acknowledge the exceptional efforts of those at the forefront of healthcare during challenging times.

At MAMA Academy, we firmly believe in the importance of recognising and rewarding exceptional individuals who consistently go above and beyond to make a positive impact on maternal and infant health. 

We have been profoundly inspired by the resilience and dedication of healthcare professionals, both during the pandemic and ever since. The MAMA Awards serve as a small token of our sincere appreciation for their tireless efforts.

We cordially invite you to join in this joyous celebration by nominating your friends, family members, colleagues, or any healthcare professional you know who has demonstrated extraordinary care, compassion, and dedication in their field. 

We welcome stories of those who have made a significant impact on your lives or the lives of others. Additionally, if you wish to suggest an additional category or would like to sponsor one of our awards, please get in touch with Dora at dora@mamaacademy.org.uk. 

Nominations close: 15th September 2024.

The 2023 MAMA Awards took place virtually on Tuesday 14th November at 7.30 pm.

The winners were selected by our prestigious judging panel and announced during the ceremony. Each deserving winner received a certificate and a prestigious award, commemorating their outstanding achievements.
