Shropshire Partners in Care Awards

On Saturday 18th September ’10 the Shropshire Partners in Care Awards (SPIC) ceremony was held at the Park Inn Hotel in Telford. The awards are held annually and this year the team from Gains Avenue were nominated for the hard work and support they showed to 1 of the tenants who was diagnosed with terminal cancer. The staff team remained positive throughout the time they supported the lady and worked well together and were extremely flexible with their shift patterns when the time arose for the lady to require additional support including time at the local hospice.

As an organisation we are delighted that the Gains Avenue team were chosen as the winners in the Team Award category. The Award was presented by Craig Kelly – Actor who played Luke Strong in Coronation Street.

We know that we have a lot of staff who work hard week in week out so when something like this happens it is really gratifying to know that their efforts are acknowledged from people outside of the organisation. We are proud of their achievements and the recognition they have achieved is richly deserved.
