Nick deserves a nomination for the empathy he has shown to his team recently. A member of the team is pregnant and he has consistently shown his support ensuring that she feels well and that she has regular breaks and rest where needed. It is really heart warming to observe.

Libby went above and beyond recently to help me with the planning for the National SRG Meeting – she helped with the room booking, lunch, refreshments, welcoming attendees etc. I really appreciate her support. As well as this, she was really friendly, with a big welcoming smile when you arrive at Millbank.

Omotanwa was kind enough to offer help when I was in need of it. I was covering thread residents in a night and I had to be in 2/3 of the flats at the same time as the residents required support. Omotanwa saw that I was stressed and didn’t know what to do and was quick to offer her help in that time as she was available to do so. Very appreciative.
