Optimo Care Group Pride Awards: Celebrating Excellence in Care

The inaugural Optimo Care Group Pride Awards were a remarkable celebration of the dedication, compassion, and excellence demonstrated by team members across the organisation. The event was a testament to the values at the heart of Optimo Care Group—those of Person-Centred care, Responsiveness, Innovation, Delight, and Engagement (PRIDE)—and honoured individuals whose work embodies these principles.

Held with the goal of recognising and rewarding the exceptional contributions of staff, the ceremony celebrated not only individual achievements but the collective spirit of a team driven by the mission to deliver high-quality, life-changing care. Winners in various categories were recognised for going above and beyond in their roles, whether by creating more effective care solutions, fostering strong relationships, or delivering outstanding service to both staff and service users.

Notable award recipients include:

April Hay, Babatunde Ashorobi, and Rebecca Bland received special recognition for their unwavering commitment and compassionate approach to care, exemplifying the PRIDE values.
Rachel Oxborough, winner of the Person-Centred Award, was celebrated for her consistent focus on putting individuals at the heart of care delivery.
Gabriel Oni-Femi was awarded in the Responsive category for his excellence in enhancing the quality and effectiveness of services through collaboration and empathy.

The Pride Awards reflect the organisation’s commitment to fostering a supportive, collaborative, and forward-thinking environment, where every team member is encouraged to bring their best selves to their work. As the event wrapped up, Optimo Care Group reinforced its dedication to continuing this tradition, with plans to host future ceremonies that spotlight both individual excellence and the collective achievements of the entire team.
