A chef at the local Belong Warrington specialist dementia care village has been recognised for her creativity in the kitchen and dedication to producing delicious and wholesome dishes for older people, at the national Great British Care Awards.
Sarah Scott, who prepares fresh, tasty meals for residents and customers of the village’s community bistro, was highly commended in the Care Home Chef category after winning the North West heat in November and progressing to the national awards.
The chef impressed judges, who said: “Guided by heart and fuelled by passion, Sarah’s cooking is more than just a craft. It is an act of care. Every meal she prepares is thoughtfully crafted to bring comfort, nourishment, and joy to residents, reflecting her deep respect for their individuality and well-being.”
Commenting on her award, Sarah added: “It was an incredible honour to represent Belong on a national stage among so many inspiring people from across the care sector. While I am deeply appreciative of this commendation, the work is truly a team effort, and I feel very lucky to do a job that I love every day alongside such great colleagues.”
The annual Great British Care Awards acknowledge those working in the care sector throughout the UK.
Belong Warrington general manager, Barry Devine, said: “We are delighted that Sarah has received recognition on a national level for her commitment to her work and the impact this has on the lives of people living at the village and the wider community that we welcome to the bistro.”
