Wow, what a night!
We’d like to extend our thanks to everyone involved in our first Dorset Care Awards 2024! To each and every one of you that nominated, to all those that attended last Friday, to the award sponsors and to Dorset Council.
The black-tie event was an amazing opportunity to celebrate with colleagues and catch up with old friends. We loved seeing so many service users and companions there. Comedian Andrew White entertained us with his devilishly charming and outrageously funny observations of the care industry.
