Regional Manager (Scotland West) Will McGregor – Care Area Manager of the Year
Speaking of the news Will said: “To be in the finals is a huge achievement and I’m so pleased to be recognised. I’m excited for myself but also for the team, the home managers, chefs, carers and all the team who have played a huge part in getting this recognition, it’s heartwarming.”
Care Assistant Tilu Ngwira – Castlecroft Residential Care Home in Birmingham – Carer of the Year
Tilu said: “I’m so surprised and happy. I didn’t think I would get this far. I love my job and the residents are like my family. I feel this is an acknowledgement for the whole home, the team and residents, not just for myself, and I’m very proud.”
