Candidates were shortlisted from over 150 entries across 30 services providing care in care homes, homecare and learning disability services. Colleagues came from across the county to join in the celebrations.

The BCA Care Awards not only recognised individual achievements but also served as a catalyst for continuous improvement and innovation within the Adult Social Care sector by awarding 8 care services with the Care Service Recognition Award.
