Sheffield-based charity Sheffield Churches Council for Community Care has won a major national award for its work supporting older people to be swiftly and safely discharged home from hospital.
Following a rigorous selection and assessment process, Sheffield Churches Council for Community Care (SCCCC) was chosen from more than 400 charities across the UK as one of the 10 winners of the 2023 GSK IMPACT Awards which are delivered in partnership with leading health and care charity The King’s Fund.
Mark Storey, CEO of Sheffield Churches Council for Community Care said: “We are extremely delighted that the judges of the highly coveted GSK IMPACT awards have recognised the fantastic work of the whole SCCCC team in supporting hospital discharge in Sheffield and named us as one of the winners for 2023.
“As an organisation SCCCC has supported older people, their families and carers, and health and social care professionals for nearly six decades and this award recognises the passion and dedication that our staff, volunteers, trustees and partners have given over the many years. Without their devotion to helping others we would not be where we are today.”
