mhs homes staff are Making a Difference

Our staff have been making a real difference at work according to their colleagues. Five members of staff from across the group were presented with Making A Difference Awards by mhs homes Director, Terry Burton.

The awards were presented to Repairs Data Analyst, Tony Shew; Rents Manager, Pauline Prothero; Housing Officer, Angela Ewen; Environmental Services Officer, Kirit Patel and Support Officer, Anna Paton. Each winner was praised for going that extra mile and making a real difference to the working environment at the mhs homes group.

The winners were nominated by their own colleagues and were presented with a trophy, a gift of a trip away worth £75 and one day’s annual leave. mhs homes Building Manager, Peter Vye nominated Tony Shew, he said, "Our customer surveys show that repairs is the most important issue for our customers and as a result we are constantly looking at ways of improving efficiency. Tony has made an outstanding contribution to efficiency savings in his work and deserves recognition for this."

Tony said, "I was very surprised and grateful to win a Making a Difference Award. It’s nice to know that my colleagues think I’m worthy of this award. Looking at the list of previous winners on the silver tray I received shows what a high standard these awards are. To be thought of in the same regard as them is a real honour. I’m thinking of spending the prize on a balloon flight over Leeds Castle."
