COLLEAGUES from a supported housing service for homeless young people in Weston have been named as finalists at the 2024 Housing with Care Awards.

Two workers from Sanctuary Supported Living’s Weston Foyer, Roxy Povey, specialist project worker, and Alexandra Reynolds, project worker, have been shortlisted for the Team Leader award and the Care and Support Worker award.

Their then-manager, Jane Prior, won the Housing Manager category at the same awards last year.

Roxy and Alexandra, along with the other finalists, are set to be interviewed by a panel of judges this month. They will attend an awards ceremony to find out if they have won at the Hilton London Bankside on Friday, June 7.

Sanctuary Supported Living has also been named as a finalist for 16 other awards at the event, including the Housing with Care Employer award.

Director for Sanctuary Supported Living, Dave Shaw, said: "Our team’s exceptional achievements and the recognition they have already received at this year’s Housing with Care Awards are truly inspiring. It’s a moment of celebration for all of us at Sanctuary Supported Living, as we continue to strive for excellence in everything we do.”
