Double award win for Home Instead

CEO Martin Jones appeared on the prestigious Social Care Top 30 list and franchise owner, Fatta Thapa, won the Executive Home Care Leader award

Home care franchise company, Home Instead, recently celebrated a double win at the prestigious Social Care Leadership awards, held at the London Marriot Hotel in London.

CEO Martin Jones appeared on the highly prestigious Social Care Top 30, which recognises influential leaders in the social care sector and franchise owner, Fatta Thapa, won the Executive Home Care Leader award.

Taking his place on the Top 30 list firmly positions Martin as one of the top business leaders and campaigners in the UK, who champions and constantly innovates in social care. Appearing at number five, it’s the second time Martin has made this list.

He was recognised for his passion for caring for the older generation, preventing loneliness, professionalising care work and exploring the role of technology in care. With roles at the Homecare Association, the Silverline, Age UK and the Care Workers’ Charity, Martin is playing a significant role in helping the social care sector to innovate.

Fatta of Home Instead Greenwich and Bexley also received recognition by winning the Executive Home Care Leader accolade. The award recognised his outstanding contribution to helping older people in the community, including memory cafes that give people with dementia a place to receive support and take part in activities. His win comes four months after being named a Platinum Champion, an award scheme during the Jubilee that recognised 490 outstanding volunteers from across the UK.

Fatta said: “I am delighted to be a winner at the Social Care Leadership Awards. I would like to thank the team at Home Instead Greenwich and Bexley for working so hard and making it possible for older people in the area to live well at home. I’d like to congratulate all of the finalists and winners.”
