Celebrating Excellence in Social Care: The Leaders in Care Awards 2024
On October 8th, we were incredibly pleased to serve as the headline sponsors of the Care Home Professionals and Care Home Insight’s 2024 Leaders in Care Awards.
Held at the National Conference Centre (NCC) in Birmingham, this event was a remarkable celebration of the achievements made in the social care sector over the past year. Following a splendid gala dinner, the awards ceremony brought together senior executives, registered managers, owners, and directors to honor those who have driven innovation and delivered outstanding, person-centered care.
A Night of Celebration and Recognition at the Leaders in Care Awards 2024
The evening was expertly hosted by Harriet Whitaker, editor of Home Care Insight, and Stephen Hall, editor of Care Home Professional. Their leadership set the tone for a night filled with inspiration and recognition, showcasing the commitment and hard work of all the nominees and winners.
Our Chief Revenue Officer, Simon Qasir, delivered a moving and motivational speech that resonated deeply with attendees. He spoke about the power of compassion in care and the importance of celebrating the people within our sector. Simon’s words served as a reminder of why we do what we do and the positive impact we can have on the lives of those we support.
As the headline sponsor, Radar Healthcare was proud to present the ‘Registered Manager of the Year’ award, as well as to walk away with the ‘Innovative Solutions for Care Homes’ award.
"As a tech provider working across the whole health and social care continuum, we are dedicated to supporting and highlighting our partners and fellow industry professional’s achievements as often as we can. Recognising accomplishments is vital for fostering positivity and retaining talent in the industry, and that is why we are proud to support the Leaders in Care Awards."
