Excelcare Secure 6 Shortlist Spots in the Stars of Social Care Awards
Six Excelcare Team Members have been named in a recent shortlist announcement for the Stars of Social Care Awards.
This annual awards event shines a light on the stars of the social care sector and pays tribute to people who have shown dedication, commitment and go the extra mile to help the people living in care homes or receiving care in their own home.
