Dorset-based national care provider Agincare invites people who draw on their range of services and their family and friends to nominate exceptional team members for the Agincare Heroes Awards 2023. 

The esteemed awards pay tribute to incredible people who have demonstrated outstanding excellence in their work or have made an extraordinary difference to people's lives or their community, including in Dorchester where Agincare runs Cheriton Care Home.  

Nominations are invited for a wide range of categories such as Care Worker of the Year, Care Team of the Year, Best Customer Service, and many more including the prestigious Agincare Hero Award. 

The Agincare Hero Award is the most distinguished decoration of the ceremony and is bestowed to team members who have performed incredible acts of care, dedication or commitment in their community. 

Nominations for the awards are open to the public at the dedicated webpage www.agincare.com/heroes. 

Agincare founder and chairman Derek Luckhurst, and chief executive Raina Summerson, will lead a panel of expert judges in reviewing the nominees.

Successful nominees will come together at an exclusive VIP ceremony in June celebrating the achievements of all Agincare Heroes 2023.

Agincare founder and chairman Derek Luckhurst said: "Every team member in our 4,000 strong workforce plays a vital part in the high-quality care and support that Agincare continues to deliver to communities across the country.

"Each and every day our team members show unwavering dedication, professionalism and enthusiasm, but we want to recognise and celebrate those that have made an incredible difference to the lives of the people they support.

Agincare chief executive Raina Summerson added: "Whatever the role in our care and support teams, we take immense pride that each team member plays such an integral role in the high-quality care that Agincare delivers.
