On 24 September, colleagues from across Praxis Care came together for our Annual Quality Conference and Staff Awards, a day of learning, reflection and celebration.
This year's theme was putting change into practice and finding new ways to deliver the highest quality care and support, with the people we support at the centre of every decision.
We heard from colleagues, families and guest speakers on topics ranging from human rights to the ethical use of AI in social care, an area our own research team has been exploring in depth. One of the most moving moments of the day came from Paddy, who joined us for a Q&A about his family's experience of working with Praxis and the Western Trust to build support around his daughter, Donna-Maria.
We shared experiences, reflected on the progress being made across Praxis Care and talked about how we keep learning, improving and shaping our services for the future.
Then it was time to celebrate! Our Staff Awards recognised the commitment, compassion and achievements of colleagues across our services. Congratulations to all our winners, including:
Co-production Award (and CEO award!) - Ballymena Supported Living Service
Corporate Service Colleague Award - Robyn Carson
Developing Self & Others Award - Saqab Ahmad
Living the Values Award - Plasden Court
Innovation Award - Templemore Supported Living Service
Manager of the Year - Debbie Thompson
Outstanding Teamwork Award - Payroll Team
Rising Star Award - Gillian Johnson
Support Worker of the Year - Emer Clerkin
Team Leader of the Year - Ciara Brennan
A huge thank you to everyone who spoke, shared their stories and helped make the day so special. We'll be sharing more from the conference over the coming weeks, so keep an eye out.

Living life his way.
Joey has called Praxis Care Meenalig in Navan home since 2006. Twenty years on, he knows exactly how he likes to spend his days.
He sets his own routine. He wakes himself in the morning, comes down for breakfast when he chooses, and keeps a busy social calendar that includes swimming, bowling, weekly family visits and the Navan Arch Club.
And when an opportunity comes along to get involved in his local community, Joey is usually keen to put himself forward.
That independence is important to Joey, and the team at Meenalig are there to support him in exercising it.
Freedom, dignity, fairness and autonomy are at the heart of the support Praxis Care provides. For Joey, that means having the right support around him while continuing to make his own choices and live life on his terms.
Twenty years after moving to Meenalig, Joey is still doing what he does best: living life his way.
