In May we were delighted to be in London at the Glaxo SmithKline, (in partnership with the Kings Fund,) IMPACT award ceremony and leadership programme.  PAMIS was one of 10 winners out of over 400 applications and very proud to be recognized for our Innovation, Management, Partnership working, Achievements, Community focus, Targeting need (IMPACT). We have learnt so much by taking part in the process and then on the leadership programme sharing ideas, knowledge and gaining skills with other winners and key mentors from the Kings fund. PAMIS was awarded £30,000 and also had a film made of our work – www.kingsfund.org.uk/audio-video/2016-gsk-impact-awards-pamis. The relationship with the other winners and the Kings Fund will grow and we are now part of an expert network. It is good to see that the work that PAMIS does is recognised at such a prestigious level. PAMIS is inspired by the people we work with and we will continue to provide further opportunities to develop the organisation and promote the contributions that people with PMLD and their family carers make to our world.
