I am pleased to announce, that after receiving about 200 nominations for the awards, my blog and I made it to the shortlist of 33 for the National Service User Awards 2014. I'm so pleased! I knew I'd been nominated but I genuinely didn't think I had a chance since there were so much other projects out there and the Awards are open to all service users; community, inpatient, high secure, open... Everyone. But I'm really happy just to be shortlisted because each shortlister has to do a 3-5minute presentation on their project so it'd be a lot of publicity for the blog!
The blog is up for the Outstanding Service User Achievement Award.
Anyway, you can get more info about the event here:
