The Michael Rosen Award
Last night Sheila Rosen announced that the Community Development Team and Connect & Do Peer Facilitators are our 2020 Michael Rosen Award winners!
The Michael Rosen Award is the ultimate accolade in our annual awards ceremony. It is awarded to the person or team who the judging panel feels has truly gone above and beyond and best represents what makes Certitude such a great organisation.
Presenting the award, Sheila said:
“Without doubt, the winner of this year’s Michael Rosen Award has shown Certitude’s values – working together they have inspired each other and those around them and have definitely upped their game in terms of the work they do!
Up until March this year, their work focused on working directly with people – sharing interests, skills and an abundance of artistic talent. When the country went into lockdown, they quickly worked out how to carry on – but online!
Over the past few months, this small team along with talented peer facilitators have kept people across Certitude entertained, motivated and able to learn new skills and interests. From laughing yoga to singing, to art and design sessions, they have created a weekly programme of activities that are now available not just within Certitude, but to anyone, anywhere!”
We’d also like to give a special mention and massive thanks to the staff and paid facilitators who have given their time and talent to the Connect & Do Programme this year.
