In Rory's own words

I am a delivery-focused leader with keen analytical, legal and operational management skills honed during 14 years in The NHS and academia. In my spare time, I'm also a former elite distance runner who has run qualification times for the biggest marathons in the world, and the inventor of an award-winning medical device. I am utterly dedicated to a belief in public service and improving outcomes for patients is what makes me tick.

It tells Rory that the work has been seen, that it matters, and that people are proud of it. For a nominee, that can be the moment that makes the whole year.
