Skills for Care's Accolades awards have been recognising and celebrating best practice, excellence and innovation in social care for more than 15 years.
Due to the challenges facing us all over the last 18 months and attention being focused on delivering safe and effective care and support, we took the decision to pause the Accolades awards. Our robust application and verification process which ensures that we celebrate the very best in our sector needs time and attention that no one has had available.
In spite of the challenges and difficulties being faced, hard work, good practice and innovation has been happening, so we hope that you will accept a big thank you from all of us for that commitment and dedication.
To keep the Accolades awards alive, we're looking back at some of our winners stories to share ideas and best practice through our Accolades awards magazine. We hope the magazine will become an additional forum to celebrate those people going above and beyond to champion and improve social care.
We will be sharing news on the Accolades awards we all know and love later in 2021…
