Our project last year with the Queen’s Nursing Institute has won the Third Sector Excellence Award for Best Website alongside other short-listed entries from the likes of WWF, The Prince’s Trust and Macmillan Cancer Support.

The District Nursing 150 website project involved exploring stories, galleries and films throughout the history of District Nursing to celebrate the vibrant one hundred and fifty year history of District Nursing in the UK. We’re very happy the project has been successful for the Queen’s Nursing Institute and look forward to collaborating in the future.

‘I am delighted to offer my congratulations to district nurses on the occasion of their 150th anniversary. District nurses provide a vital service, particularly to more vulnerable people who may not be able to access other forms of healthcare. We have much to learn from you experience as more services are provided in patients’ homes. I salute the hard work of each one of the district nurses who have cared for Londoners over the past 150 years and wish you all the best for your anniversary celebrations and the future.’
Boris Johnson, Mayor of London
