Award Ceremony Sponsorship thanks:
Our 2015 awards are being kindly sponsored by three supporting organisations:
Without the support of their generous donations, our awards would not be made possible. Thank you.
2014 Award winners were:
- 1st Riverside ECHG – Tenant Safeguarding Awareness Training
- 2nd RCT Homes – Summerdale Scrum & Sporting Memories Reminiscence Project
- 3rd A2Dominion Housing Group Ltd – “Activities R Us”
“We are delighted with this award! The project has been a great success. The awareness sessions delivered by two of our trained residents are encouraging the rest of our tenants to come forward and speak to staff should they have any concerns. The sessions are giving tenants the confidence and knowledge to report any of their suspicions to the Riverside team and what better way of raising tenants’ awareness than through tenants delivering the training to tenants”.
Alison Halstead (Area manager for Riverside ECHG)
