Jessica Owens
Ansa Care Concept Ltd (Plas Dyffryn)

Studying for an Open University degree was put on hold as she completed the diploma in just 11 months due to her dedication, despite having a busy home life.
Described as a stand-out learner who sets her own goals, Jessica has been supported and encouraged by her manager who says she has the talent to go as far as she wants in her career.
Adam Sumner

With support from his training officer and learner services at Grwp Llandrillo Menai, he remained focused on completing his qualification while always prioritising the people he cared for.
Having struggled with his mental health during the pandemic, Adam showed great resilience during his training programme to develop and progress. He is now deputy manager in another setting.
Janet Allen
Adferiad
Janet Allen cried with joy when she achieved her Level 3 Diploma in Health and Social Care, which she began at the beginning of the pandemic.
Having worked in hospitals before the pandemic, she moved to another setting to support carers of people with mental health issues and was initially apprehensive about being an older learner.
However, Janet was determined to achieve the qualification and the extra skills and knowledge she has gained have increased her confidence to support carers who speak highly of her dedication.
