To celebrate excellence in pathology practice and promote high standards in pathology education, training and research to deliver the best patient care, the College (RCPath) has established the RCPath Achievement Awards. These awards complement the College’s existing schemes that celebrate public engagement and research. The 2025 Achievement Awards will celebrate excellence in pathology service provision through teamwork.
Pathology services – Team Awards
Four team awards will be given to teams who have achieved above and beyond what would be expected in their usual course of their work. For example, quality improvement activities, setting up new services, innovation in service delivery, reaching new patient groups, or educating and training staff and students.
Sustainability – Team award
The awards panel are looking for innovative solutions for pathology services that have saved carbon (or carbon equivalents) with a quantification, that would be beneficial to be shared with the wider pathology community. In particular the panel will be looking for pioneering evidence and not just making incremental steps to becoming more sustainable. Evidence should include actions have been taken over and above the normal requirements of the team’s work. Applications must provide evidence of impact, and of good leadership/championing practice in engaging and inspiring others.
