Parklands Care Homes managing director wins Outstanding Achievement Award
THE managing director of Parklands Care Homes has been named a winner at an industry award ceremony.
Ron Taylor beat off strong competition to win the Outstanding Achievement Award at the Caring UK Awards.
The awards, now in their sixth year, recognise excellence and achievement in all corners of social care. The winners in each category were decided from a shortlist of up to eight.
Ron Taylor said: “This was a very unexpected win, but a brilliant way to round off our 30th anniversary celebrations.
"I’m delighted for the entire Parklands team. This is as much their award as it is mine, and they should be very proud that their reputation for excellence in care has been recognised at a UK level.”
Caring UK Awards director Dominic Musgrave added: "This year’s winners should be very, very proud.
"The high standard of entries made it a tough job to select a final shortlist never mind a winner and runner-up in each category.
“Our awards night was a great celebration of the care industry as a whole and it was great to see so many businesses represented at the event.
"It was a wonderful evening and it was lovely to share in the celebrations of the winners.”
This is the second win for Parklands in recent weeks. Last month, Mr Taylor won Scottish Care’s Strategic Contribution Award.
