We would also like to thank our judges and everyone who has worked hard to make the UHR Awards possible in these difficult days. Many of you will know that we invite our award winners and shortlisted teams to present to UHR members about their successful projects at an annual Showcasing Good Practice event. As soon as we know how we will run this event in 2020, whether virtually or online, we will share this information with you. We sometimes describe it as "the best learning day of the year" and we'll find a way to deliver exactly that again in 2020.
