A HOMECARE company manager from Hoyland Common has received a prestigious award.
Alison Taylor, general manager of Home Instead franchises in Sheffield and Barnsley, was awarded the Senior Key Player of the Year Award at the organisation’s national conference recently.
Throughout 2024, Alison worked alongside her team to set up the Training Centre of Excellence in October, a bespoke health and social care training facility based in South Sheffield.
The centre aims to provide career pathways for social care staff with upskilling opportunities in specialist care, as well as a space to practice moving and handling theory and skills away from a client’s home.
“It was such an honour to win this award and for my work to be recognised,” she said.
“But it’s not about me, it’s about all of those of us who show up with compassion, dedication, and a shared mission to make a difference.”
