Upon winning her award, Micha said:
“To be recognised for something that I love and am passionate about means a lot to me. Being nominated and shortlisted for this award came as a surprise, I was over the moon when they announced me as the winner, I was totally not expecting this. I would like to dedicate this award to the Solent Grange Nursing Home Team and all of our lovely residents.”
Micha will now be put forward for the National awards ceremony which will be held the ICC, Birmingham on 17th March 2023.
