Bridlington’s White Rose Lodge care home was victorious at the recent Maria Mallaband Care Homes (MMCG) and Countrywide Care Awards which was held at Leeds Armouries.
The awards were attended by 320 employees and sponsors with comedian Tom Allen hosting the event.
He entertained the employees with a 10 minute stand-up spot organised as a special surprise by chairman and founder of MMCG Phil Burgan.
White Rose Lodge was one of four homes in the final and its representatives were delighted to receive the top prize which was presented by Phil Burgan, Susan Jones (People and Development Lead) and Tom Allen.
Collecting the award at the event was Adam Janeway (home manager), Tina Craggs (deputy manager), Diane Green (senior care assistant) and Monica Thorpe (regional director).
Mr Janeway said: “I am delighted that the home won this award.
“Its been a challenging couple of years with all of the Covid restrictions but through it all the residents remained our number one priority and focus.
“We had two consecutive outstanding internal audits this year which focused on infection control and they were delighted with the results and our high standards.
“This is a huge achievement for the staff, residents and relatives of White Rose Lodge and we are so proud to bring this award home.”
