Radfield Home Care branch wins Employer of the Year

A Radfield Home Care franchise business based in North Yorkshire is celebrating after winning an Employer of the Year award.

The home care franchise unit, which covers Harrogate, Wetherby and North Yorkshire, was thrilled to be named the top employer in the Harrogate Excellence in Business Awards this month. The judges were on the lookout for companies demonstrating an interest in looking after its employees. They explained,

“A genuine commitment to, and trust in, its people leads to success in business.”

The Radfield Home Care branch was praised for its “pre-eminent commitment to the development and welfare of its people, by encouraging communication, creativity and proactivity throughout the organisation”.

After announcing the shortlisted organisations, the awards body was forced to delay the ceremony as a result of the pandemic, which eventually took place online. Matthew Nutting, Co-Director of the winning franchise unit, said the success was down to the entire team of staff:

“This award is really a testament to the incredible staff team we are lucky to have working alongside us. A family culture of support and dedication, to each other as well as our valued clients, has been developed as a collective rather than just one person.

“We are dedicated to the development of our staff, helping them to build their knowledge, skills, and confidence. Full-time guaranteed hour contracts with guaranteed annual pay reviews give our carers security – this means they can relax into their role and grow daily in their confidence and competence to become the best social care professionals they can possibly be. As employers, we are merely there to support our staff and give them the tools they need to flourish.”
