BPS Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Prize, sponsored by AstraZeneca

The Society is committed to championing Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) and we encourage our community to join us in this drive by recognising efforts being made by members.

This annual prize recognises members who champion Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. A generous donation of £1,000 from AstraZeneca will go to the winners, who will also have the opportunity to communicate their contribution.
