Time is running out for people in Lichfield and Burntwood to put forward carers, work colleagues, friends and family members for a special award.

The 2022 Staffordshire Dignity in Care Awards are open for nominations until Tuesday (31st May).

They recognise organisations and individuals who care for the most vulnerable with dignity, kindness, respect and compassion.

Cllr Julia Jessel, cabinet member for health and care at Staffordshire County Council, said:

“There are thousands of carers and hundreds of care companies in Staffordshire all doing a vital job and it’s important we celebrate and thank them for what they do.

“Our annual Dignity in Care awards are a great way of recognising the high standards of care amongst our carers and care companies and I would urge people to make a nomination while there is still time.

“There are also ten categories to choose from this year, so there’s something for everyone. Please have a think about those special people and organisations you might know and get them nominated for an award.

“If any businesses or organisations are interested in sponsoring the event and ceremony and being part of the celebration, we still have opportunities, so please get in touch with the team.”

Cllr Julia Jessel, Staffordshire County Council
