Winners
7th December 2018, London
The Markel 3rd Sector Care Awards 2018 ceremony took place on the 7th December. It celebrated the fantastic work of all the finalists and brought together over 250 people from across social care.
Dame Esther Rantzen and her daughter Rebecca Wilcox were on hand to oversee the day and to announce the winners. In between tear-jerking, and sometimes laugh-out-loud interviews, the Chelsea Pensioners Singing Group performed a festive soundtrack, with singalong moments for the audience to join in.
A superb day was had by all. Congratulations to the winners - and all those who were finalists.
