Speaking about the awards Provide’s Chairman, Derrick Louis said:
“These annual staff awards highlight the commitment, compassion and innovation of our staff and volunteers. They also demonstrate the exceptional and inspiring efforts that have been made to improve the care that we deliver.
“It was difficult to judge many of the categories as there were many high quality entries, so my congratulations to every individual and team who were nominated and to all those who received Long Service or Educational Awards.”
