Support Workers head up
a roll call of excellence at charity awards
SUPPORT workers at a North West
charity headed up a roll call of excellence at an awards ceremony, at
Southport's Convention Centre, for the 2nd Annual AFG People Awards.
Staff from across the region were presented with awards from their employer
Alternative Futures Group (AFG) at its annual People's Awards. They were
praised for their support for colleagues, positive values and close
involvement in their communities.
AFG is a charity which supports more than 1200 people with learning
disabilities and mental health needs every year across the North West. This
is achieved by providing around the clock support within the community, in
peoples own homes or in 1 of 8 specialist treatment and recovery centres.
The gala event saw staff from across the North West come together to
celebrate their successes.
Neil Campbell, chief executive at Alternative Futures Group said:-
"The People's Awards were set up to recognise and highlight the dedication,
commitment and excellence of all of our staff.
More than 650 nominations were received across the 12 award categories by
staff, people the charity supports, family members and carers. There were so
many worthy winners on the night and all of them deserve a special mention."
This includes Craig Evason, who was presented with the team Leader of the
year award, for his work leading a team of Support Workers in The Wirral.
