Throughout January 2021, Hertfordshire Care Providers Association will share inspirational stories of people working in care and show appreciation for their hard work.
Often overlooked, underpaid and at times under-valued compared to their NHS colleagues, HCPA hopes this campaign will shed light on the essential role played by carers within communities, as well as potentially encouraging others to consider starting a career within the adult care sector.
One such person is 23-year-old Courtney Hatch, who works at the Roebuck Nursing Home in Stevenage.
