Care Heroes Shine Big at the Welsh Great British Care Awards!
A team of compassionate care workers Living at Home is celebrating multiple wins at the prestigious Welsh Regional Great British Care Awards, where their passion and commitment to life-changing care were recognised. With an impressive 17 finalist nominations, the organisation celebrated three award wins and two highly commended recognitions, showcasing its commitment to excellence in social care.
Award-Winning Heroes
Tracy Rogers, Palliative Care/End of Life Award
Tracy’s selfless dedication to dignified, respectful care—particularly during end-of-life situations—sets her apart. Volunteering for overnight shifts to give families much-needed rest, Tracy’s specialised palliative care training ensures dignity, comfort, and emotional support for clients and their families during challenging times.
Susan Collins, Home Care Worker Award
Susan’s compassion, caring nature, and unwavering commitment to the care sector make her an invaluable member of the Living at Home team. Her ability to go above and beyond for her clients is a testament to her dedication and the positive impact she has on those she supports.
Erin Tomlinson-Price & James Foley, Care Innovator Award
Erin and James stood out for their innovative approach to transforming perceptions of social care. By leveraging creative platforms on the Living at Home website, they are driving change and inspiring improvements across the sector.
Highly Commended: Joanne Abraham, Care Assessor/Care Planner Award and Three R’s Award
Joanne’s dedication to person-centred care and her leadership in fostering a collaborative, compassionate team earned her high praise from the judges. Through thorough assessments, tailored care plans, and an emphasis on continuity of care, Joanne has significantly improved the lives of her clients.
“Jo was truly inspirational during her interview,” said one of the judges. “She spoke with such passion about her staff and clients, yet remained incredibly humble about her achievements in founding Living at Home shortly after the main waves of COVID. It was easy to see why one of her colleagues nominated her for this award—her dedication is unmatched, and she came in at a very close second.”
Celebrating Excellence in Care
These accolades reflect the exceptional commitment, compassion, and innovation that define Living at Home’s approach to care. Each recognition, from finalists to winners, highlights the profound impact the organisation has on its clients, families, and the broader care community.
“We are immensely proud of our team and their incredible achievements,” said Joanne Abraham for Living at Home. “Their hard work, compassion, and innovative thinking are what make Living at Home a beacon of excellence in the care sector.”
