The Green Nursing Challenge Showcase was held on 20 October 2025 celebrating the outstanding work of six teams from hospital and social care settings—an award-winning leadership and engagement programme dedicated to transforming healthcare. The six clinical teams presented their Sustainable Quality Improvement (SusQI) projects to a judging panel, focusing on key priorities identified through carbon footprint measurements, partner collaboration and input from people with lived experience. Themes included valuing people’s time, supporting informed choices, improving access and experience for underserved groups, and addressing complex care, pelvic health and continence—all aimed at reducing environmental harm and tackling health inequalities in nursing care. -
