Our hard-working team was recognised as runner up for one of the most prestigious awards in Adult Social Care – the MJ Awards 2021 Care and Health Integration category – in addition to being nominated as finalists in the Local Government Chronicles 2021 for Well Being and Resilience in the Partnership category.
