St Barnabas Hospice to host the Excellence in Lincolnshire networking forum

20th February 2025

Networking Forum Lincolnshire - Michelle Webb & Judy Hart

You are warmly invited to join us for the launch of Excellence in Lincolnshire, a brand new networking forum which brings together individuals and organisations who have a mindset for excellence.

Where: St Barnabas Hospice Wellbeing Centre on Hawthorn Road, Lincoln LN2 4QX
When: Monday 3rd March 9.30am – 11.30am

LVET and St Barnabas Hospice have been working with Investors in Excellence to develop an exciting new Excellence in Lincolnshire programme – where enterprise, innovation, learning and development meet.

Judy Hart, Chief Executive of Investors in Excellence Group explains:

“The Excellence in Lincolnshire programme is not another administration-heavy burden that will turn off your teams and confuse your customers. It is a series of uncomplicated tools and modules to guide you at every stage of your journey, to help you deliver what matters most and your customised Framework for Excellence, based on the Investors in Excellence Standard.

We have been delivering the IiE Standard across the world for over 28 years. Having close associations with Lincolnshire, we will guide improving achievements through effective and efficient leadership, resourcing, and delivery to drive continuous improvement and recognition. Onwards and upwards, organisations will be taken through a series of performance levels, aiming for high performing as the norm. Ultimately, together we are creating a unique Centre For Excellence.”

Michelle Webb, Deputy Chief Executive at St Barnabas says:

“St Barnabas is pleased to be part of the journey, working collaboratively and championing Excellence for Lincolnshire to help organisations of all sizes and sectors demonstrate how they are pursuing excellence. The Excellence Framework, and the collaborative principles, aims to support leaders – be they Directors or Trustees, Staff or Volunteers – to understand how each part of their organisation’s activities contribute to being as good as they can be, and through the network to develop new partnerships and generate business opportunities.”

Paul Gutherson, Managing Director of LVET summarises:

“We want to create a forum that captures the imagination of voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise organisations as well as private and public sector organisations that want to demonstrate to funders, partners and customers how they are committed to excellence in all that they do, and importantly, that they know what excellence looks like and the steps they need to get there and to maintain it.”
