Brian O’Donoghue, Marie Curie’s Head of HR, said: “The awards clearly demonstrated what a wealth of talent and commitment we have throughout Marie Curie. Warmest congratulations to all our winners and nominees. “The awards were without doubt
a resounding success and we will be running them again this year, so get thinking about who you will nominate for living our values!”
