The Faculty of Pain Medicine
Criteria for Honours, Awards and
Prizes
Purpose
The criteria against which the various honours, awards and prizes awarded by the Board of The Faculty of Pain Medicine (FPM) have developed
over time. The aim of this document is to clarify the current process and criteria.
Process of nomination
Any Fellow can suggest nominations to be formally considered by the Board through the RCoA Nominations Committee. This Committee
is the most senior Committee of the Council of RCoA, chaired by the Senior Vice-President, and including the President and other Vice-
President, the Dean of the Faculty, Senior Councillors and the Chief Executive. The Committee normally meets twice yearly although electronic
communications are used if significant honours are being considered for specific events.
The Secretary to the Nominations Committee co-ordinates this process and is the primary point of contact for proposed nominations. The
decision of the Nominations Committee is ratified by Council without appeal. The process meets all the requirements related to discrimination
legislation.
Criteria for awards
The awards are described below in descending order with the FPM highest awards first. Reflection on the contributions made by those
successful is a good starting point when considering at what level a nomination should be advanced.
Fellowship by election
The award of our Fellowship by election is the highest accolade possible. It is considered for practitioners across the world who have made
sustained and significant contributions to the practice of Pain Medicine. This may be either to the UK or their own country’s health services.
This activity has to be at an internationally active level and normally sustained for at least ten years. Evidence through the presented CV should
document this activity and the outcome of such work. Whilst there are no limits to the number of awards at this level it is unusual to award
more than two or three a year. Awardees listed below.

The Humphry Davy Award
This award may be awarded to an individual (as a medal) or to an organisation (as a certificate). This is normally awarded annually, but there
may exceptionally be more awards in any one year. The standard expected is for sustained contributions to the Royal College, usually in a
specific area of activity. This is national activity but may include successfully completed commissioned activity. The project or activity has to
be significant for the Royal College and involve high levels of commitment and delivery over some years although usually less than the ten
years criteria for the higher awards. Award holders listed below.
