The Countdown Begins

The Olympics are over for another four years, but the countdown has now started - no not for Rio - but for the announcement of Baptistcare's Inaugural Recognition Awards.

A total of 50 nominations have been received for the awards that are based on Baptistcare's values of dignity and compassion, integrity and respect, courage and justice, stewardship and accountability. The judges have done their unenviable work with these nominations and the finalists have been advised.

The big announcement will be made at a Gala Dinner that will be held at the Perth Town Hall on Friday, September 7.

The overwhelming message that comes from the judges is that Baptistcare has some amazing stories to tell of people who are incredibly committed to their work and to putting the values of the organisation into practice. It will be a joy to share some of these stories at the Gala Dinner and in the time following that event.

Thank you to all those who nominated colleagues, and to those who have accepted nomination. This has been a valuable exercise in helping us to recognise what our values look like in the day to day life of Baptistcare's many services and programmes.

Now, hold your breath. The countdown has begun. Who will be the first winners in Baptistcare's Recognition Awards?
