*Carers celebrated at awards event* With around 11,000 unpaid carers, around 7,000 young carers, and many more people who contribute to social care support in Sheffield, it was so important we came together to honour and recognise their outstanding contribution to our city. Sheffield’s carers were celebrated last night (13 February 2025) at the Sheffield Cares Excellence Awards, for the care and support that they give to the people of Sheffield. Hosted by Sheffield City Council’s Adult Health and Social Care team, the awards ceremony highlighted the dedication of some of the city’s most skilled and dedicated carers. Cllr Angela Argenzio said: "It was inspiring to hear about what they do for others at the ceremony, and it reminded all of us how essential their role is every day all over the city. We are so grateful for the huge difference they make to so many people’s lives." Learn more: https://www.sheffield.gov.uk/news/2025/sheffield-cares-excellence-awards-celebrate-sheffields-carers
