Active Prospects has won a national award at the Great British Care Awards, presented by TV star Kate Garraway at the ICC in Birmingham.
Vicky Marshall, Training Manager at Active Prospects, beat off competition from across the country to win the Workforce Development Award. The judging panel of sector experts highlighted that Vicky stood out for her enthusiastic passion and innovative approach to training. She was inspirational with an infectious personality.
