The Scottish Care Awards are a significant date in the calendar as they represent a much needed and worthy cause of celebrating those who do so much for others, tirelessly devoted to the wellbeing of others and proving a credit to themselves and the Independent Care sector.
Taking place at the Marriot Hotel in Glasgow on Thursday 23rd June, following the Care at Home Conference the Care Awards saw a number of awards bestowed on hugely deserving individuals who make a big difference to others.
We are hugely proud to celebrate care and caring in Scotland and would like to congratulate all our winners and nominees.
The Scottish Care Lifetime Achievement Award was presented to Stephen Pennington, a deserved winner who has been Scottish Care Chair for Highland Care at Home since 2009. Stephen has spent the last 35 years working in the Social Care field assisting the vulnerable and marginalised in our society.
