The Care Awards are a chance to say thank-you to that special someone who cares for others. This could be a friend, neighbour or family member who looks after someone with a long-term illness or disability or has provided outstanding support for carers.
Nominations for the Care Awards 2019 have now closed and will reopen later this year.
