Cwmbran Day Opportunities in Cwmbran, Morley Road care home in Tiptree and Oxclose Lodge care home in Nottingham were celebrating after receiving prizes in a photo and video competition.

The services, which are part of Salutem Care and Education and aim to empower the individuals they support to enjoy the freedom to live fulfilling lives, scooped the prizes with photos of the individuals supported by the service.

The competition brief was to show what HumanKind, the premise at the very heart of Salutem, meant to staff and the individuals they support through a photo or video.

The winners received a Fujifilm Instax Polaroid camera, and the top three entries were also presented with a printed canvas of their winning photo to display at their service, as well hanging at the Salutem head office in Windsor.

Kimberly Davey, service manager at Oxclose Lodge, which won first prize, said: “I’m so happy our team won the photography competition. Stacey really enjoyed being pampered and having a face mask and Remi captured the moment. It was then submitted by Elaine Cubitt. They’re the real stars.

“At Oxclose Lodge, we want the people we support to feel at home, comfortable and relaxed, so we often have lovely spa days and special events to help us get everyone in good spirits.

“I’m delighted that the picture of Stacey spoke to the judges and represents HumanKind across the whole of Salutem.”

John Godden MBE, CEO of Salutem Care and Education, said: “I’d like to congratulate everyone who took part in our photo and video competition.

“We saw so many examples of HumanKind and what it means to our team. It’s fantastic to see so many people living the Salutem values. The pictures really captured a lovely moment. Very well done.”
