Skills for Care celebrates outstanding care and support services
[ad_1]
Entries are now open for the annual Skills for Care Accolades that celebrate outstanding care and support services.
The Accolades recognise excellence and innovation among England’s 1.47m social care workforce.
Skills for Care Interim CEO Andy Tilden said: “All our finalists say it is an opportunity on a national stage to show off how high-quality care and support provision changes people’s lives, and it is a joyous night where we celebrate brilliant organisations who invest in their team’s learning and development.
“Social care needs to be much better at shouting from the rooftops about how good local services are, so this is a rare chance to shine on a national stage, and have a much deserved turn in the spotlight. I’ve been privileged to attend the Accolades to see for myself how it much it means for all the finalists to have national recognition for their teams.”
The 2019 awards categories are:
Best employer of between 51 and 249 staff
