Ovarian Cancer Action awarded ‘Charity, Professional or Patient Association of the Year’ at The Communiqué Awards

05 July 2019

We were thrilled to have been awarded ‘Charity, Professional or Patient Association of the Year’ at The Communiqué Awards. We were recognised for both our World Ovarian Cancer Day awareness campaign and the Hereditary Cancer Risk Tool. 

The judges said, "This was a stand-out winner, because it was a strong, simple, but really hard-working campaign. It was innovative because OCA used influencers to spread the message, but in a very targeted way and the NHS adopted their tool, so it had an immediate impact for patients. This was the one that the judges remember!"

The Communiqué Awards programme exists to recognise and commend excellence and best practice in European, international and local healthcare communications. 

We are so proud of the entire OCA team for their tireless commitment to creating a better future for women with ovarian cancer and are incredibly grateful to the supporters who make our work possible.
