We are so delighted to announce that Jeanette McMenamin, Person Centred Counsellor, won The Wellbeing Award at the National Children and Young People Awards last month.
These unique and prestigious awards celebrate excellence in care for children, young people and families, showcase innovation and best practice in this area and pay tribute to those individuals or organisation who excel in quality care provision.
All award nominees were invited to a vibrant evening event in Birmingham in October to celebrate, whilst gaining the recognition and thanks that they deserve for their outstanding work to improve the lives of children and young people.
On announcing Jeanette as the winner of the Wellbeing Award, the judges said:
“Her exceptional kindness, unwavering passion, and sheer joy in spending time with each and every child makes an immense and lasting difference in their lives. Her warm and nurturing approach fosters not only a sense of safety but also a deep sense of belonging, leaving a profound impact.”
This award recognises an individual or agency who goes above and beyond to promote wellbeing for children and young people and/or ensure that families can stay together.
Congratulations Jeanette!
Danielle Hodgson, Registered Manager, said: “What an amazing evening had by many of the team and Polaris Senior Managers at the National Children and Young people’s awards. The team thoroughly enjoyed the awards ceremony and felt exceptionally proud to be part of Bay View Childcare.
A massive round of applause to our amazing Counsellor Jeanette for her excellent work with children. We are delighted that you’ve received the recognition you deserve.”
We would also like to say congratulations to Oliver Mcloughlin from Bay View who was nominated for the Support Worker Award (North) and attended the evening to support his team!
