‘But in our eyes you are the first.’ JUDI LOVE our 2024 Surrey Care Awards host.
Celebrity comedian Judi, presenter and Celebrity Bake Off Star currently panelist on TV’s Loose Women – and with her new show Judi Love Culinary Cruise is a passionate advocate of social care.
Judi hosted the Surrey Care Awards held by Surrey Care Association on Friday.
Work with non-verbal supported clients, adults with learning difficulties and autism in day care, 24 hour care and ‘home from home’ settings, were a few of the many areas of social care work recognised at the 2024 Surrey Care Awards.
Highlighting the breadth and depth of all those in adult social care do to enable people’s lives to be better, despite funding challenges said Judi: ‘I can’t tell you how dear to my heart these awards are. Thankyou to all of you – for the professionalism it takes as a team – your work is truly needed.’
The awards saw some amazing examples of the work happening in Surrey. There were Care Worker of The Year accolades in a range of other areas including home care and nursing homes, excellence in workforce innovation where different social care settings worked together to create apprenticeship programmes.
The awards also saw awards for ‘Unsung Heroes – Making Care Possible’ as well a surprise special recognition award honouring the ‘outstanding contribution to care ’ that an individual had made.
Teams in organisations were also awarded for their innovative ways of enabling positive change for the people they serve, including groundbreaking dementia care and nationally recognised palliative treatments.
