    The WEGO awards

    As we know there are loads of unsung heroes out there - people who work to try to make things better for those with health conditions. The WEGO awards accepts nominations from people all over the world in a range of categories. The idea is to celebrate those who are "patient leaders" rather than official channels.
    I know I've had a huge amount of support and understanding from online groups and communities in the past and would have loved to have known about this then!

    There are loads of categories that are open for nominations.

    The WEGO awards are for various categories for things that are out there online to help people with health conditions..


    The WEGO Health Awards program was created to recognize and honor those making a difference in the online health community. It provides the opportunity for community members to thank and support the Patient Leaders and patient-centric initiatives they admire. Since its inception in 2011, the WEGO Health Awards have proven to be one of the best ways to connect the healthcare industry with top patient influencers. It is the only awards program that recognizes Patient Leaders across all condition areas and platforms, with over 4,000 nominations in 2018 alone!




    Nomination categories are here:

    Maybe you know of a local group which has helped you in some way? Or maybe you know of an international support group online?
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    I’ve literally just read a conversation about being conditioned not to feel we’ve done something well, and then I read this
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    You definitely are deserving, you're a really special lady, who goes more than the extra mile to help people.
