The finalist shortlist for the Healthcare Design Awards 2025 has been unveiled.

Previously run by Pinders, the awards, which were first launched in 1991, were taken over last year by Nexus Media Group, which also publishes Healthcare Property magazine.

The competition recognises innovation and excellence in the design of health and care facilities across the UK.

There are a total of six trophies up for grabs in 2025 and the winners will be announced at a ceremony at the Royal Lancaster Hotel in London on 13 February.
