🌟 Employee of the Month – May 🌟

We are pleased to recognise Jackie Bellerby as our Employee of the Month for May.

Since joining the company on 2nd March 2026 as a Rapid Responder, Jackie has received consistent positive feedback, reflecting her dedication and compassionate approach to care. She consistently goes the extra mile for the people she supports, taking the time to build trust and develop positive relationships, helping them feel comfortable and confident in accepting support. This has been particularly recognised recently with packages supporting people at the end of their life, where Jackie has shown exceptional compassion, patience and commitment.

Jackie has also shown great initiative, identifying when a family was struggling to manage their home and arranging additional housework support to help them.

Jackie’s kindness, patience, and proactive approach truly reflect the values we strive for, and we are proud to recognise her as our Employee of the Month. Congratulations Jackie! Thank you for all that you do! 💙

Today we say goodbye to our wonderful colleague, Brenda, as she retires after 16 years with our team.

Brenda joined us as a Community Carer and, through her dedication and hard work, progressed to Team Leader. Throughout her time with us, she has been a valued member of the team, always bringing kindness, compassion, and support to those around her.

Her commitment to both colleagues and service users has left a lasting impression, and her contribution over the years has been greatly appreciated by everyone who has worked with her.

While we'll miss seeing her every day, we're grateful for everything she has done and wish her all the very best for the future.

Congratulations on your retirement, Brenda. We hope this next chapter brings plenty of happiness, relaxation, and special moments with family and friends. 💐🎉❤️

We are delighted to announce that January’s Employee of the Month is Rifath Chowdhury! 🎉

Rifath has been recognised following outstanding feedback from a service user’s family, who highlighted the exceptional care, respect, and attentiveness she showed while supporting their mum.

During what was a challenging time for the family, Rifath’s kindness, patience, and compassionate approach made a real difference. Her dedication left such a positive and lasting impression that the family specifically requested for Rifath to continue supporting their mum wherever possible.

Rifath’s commitment, professionalism, and genuine care truly reflect the high standards we strive to deliver every day. We are incredibly proud to celebrate her achievements this month.

👏 Congratulations, Rifath, and thank you for the difference you make!

🌟 Employee of the Month – January 🌟

We are delighted to announce that January’s Employee of the Month is Toni Pitt! 👏🎉

Toni, our Rapid Responder, has quickly made a real impact since joining the team. She has been recognised for her responsiveness to service users’ needs, her proactive approach, and the brilliant feedback she has received ⭐

Even outside of work hours, Toni has taken the initiative to pick up and distribute fliers for activities she thought would benefit her service users 🤝💙 Despite being new to the business, she has already identified and acted on numerous situations that have helped prevent potential safeguarding issues. For example, Toni has built trusting relationships with service users living in unkempt environments, enabling her to support them in accepting help and improving their homes 🏡✨

Toni’s dedication, professionalism, and commitment to going above and beyond truly make her a well-deserved Employee of the Month 🏆🌟
