mhs homes employees recognised for their hard work
Four members of staff were recognised for their hard work and special efforts by mhs homes residents at an awards ceremony, held at our head office recently.
Caretaker, Dave Roberts, Supported Housing Officer, Karen Aldrich, Housing Officer, Sally Thomas and Welfare Benefits Advisor, Catherine Ayling all received "Employee of the Year Awards" from mhs homes Chief Executive, Ashley Hook.
mhs homes has been running the awards which are nominated by residents for the last seven years. The winners are chosen each year by tenant representatives on the Board of mhs homes. Forty-seven nominations were received this year and four were selected by Eileen Kenward and Pat Austin to receive special awards.
Dave Roberts was nominated by Wilhemina Utchanah from Bryant Street, Chatham. She said, "I’ve never seen such a hard worker as Dave, it’s like he never rests. However busy he is, he always stops with a smile to listen to whatever you have to say, he really deserves his award."
Dave was really surprised to be presented with his trophy. He said, "It’s lovely to receive this award, especially when it has meant that a customer has taken the time and effort to nominate you. I’m just doing my job but it’s nice that people have recognised what I do every day."
