Care UK celebrates three nominations for the LaingBuisson Awards

Care UK colleagues are celebrating, having been nominated in three categories for the prestigious LaingBuisson Awards.

The provider has been shortlisted for Care Home Group of the Year, Excellence in Sustainability in Social Care and Leadership Team of the Year.

Care UK has demonstrated excellence in delivering residential and nursing care for older people. The organisation has more Outstanding rated homes, as awarded by the Care Quality Commission, than any other provider. The continued focus on innovation and engagement with residents and relatives ensured that Care UK was nominated for Care Home Group of the Year.

Care UK’s efforts in environmental, social, and economic sustainability within social care have also been recognised in the shortlisting. Whilst their Wildlife Gardens project is the main focus, other recent initiatives included the Harvest Festival (which saw food and more than £8,000 donated to food bank networks), a £1 million investment in LED lighting across the estate, and the continued commitment to reduce pharmaceutical waste and divert waste from landfills.

Alongside this, Care UK has embraced exemplary leadership, delivering exceptional outcomes, financial results and employee engagement through an open culture from the top.

Whether the leadership team are visiting homes to engage with colleagues, residents and relatives, taking part in Colleague Appreciation Week, or attending Colleague Voices forums across the country, they are dedicated to celebrating and developing their workforce of more than 15,000 colleagues.

The winners of the 2025 LaingBuisson Awards will be announced on the 20^th of November 2025 at Park Plaza Westminster Bridge.
