More than 500 people packed The Brewery in central London yesterday to find out who would be named the winners of The Building Better Healthcare Awards 2014.
The event began with a champagne reception and exhibition, before a four-course meal. Celebrity guest, Gyles Brandreth, then hosted the ceremony, presented awards to the lucky winners.
