Springhill Duo Scoop Top Award At North West Care Awards

Care staff from two of Springhill Care Group’s companies have won a top industry award and will now go on to represent the North West at a national final.

The North West heats of the Great British Care Awards were held in Manchester, and in total 10 staff members from Springhill were finalists in a number of categories.

Ultimately, Jan Holt, nutrition advocate at Birch Green Care Home won the Nutrition and Hydration Award, and Vici Beardsworth, operations manager for Springhill’s supported living service, Affinity Supporting People, won the Front Line Leader award.

Now the pair will go on to the national Great British Care Awards, expected to be held in London next year.

Ken Nolan, chairman of Springhill Care Group, said: “Having so many members of staff shortlisted for categories in what are one of the industry’s most talked about awards was a tremendous recognition of the hard work that goes on across the group.

“Both Jan and Vici make such a difference to the lives of the people they care for, and were deserving winners. I’m sure everyone at Springhill would join me in congratulating them and wishing them all the best for the national awards.”
