The stars were shining both inside and outside the Hilton Hotel in Leicester as Douglas Court Care Home took home the “Best for Team Commitment & Retention” award at the Adept Awards in Excellence.
The glitzy gala, held on 7th May, celebrated care heroes who make a difference every single day. The evening, filled with glamour, live entertainment, and heartfelt celebration, honoured outstanding contributions in care—shining a spotlight on the individuals and teams who make a difference every day. Douglas Court was recognised for its outstanding team culture, development, and dedication.

Voted for by the local community, this award honours a team that supports each other and celebrates achievements. Many team members have been with the home for years—proof of a workplace that values its people.
“Our team is the heart of our home,” said Sian Rankin, the Trainee Home Manager. “We grow, we learn, we support—and we love what we do. This award is a thank you to every team member who brings their best every day.”
