Care Connection Partners wins Yorkshire People’s Choice vote at major national awards

Care Connection Partners won the People’s Choice Award for Yorkshire at the National Family Business of the Year Awards 2026 – voted by you!

Run by Family Business United, the awards are a celebration of the family business sector across the whole of the UK.

They recognise the achievements of great family firms from all sectors of the economy, and are the only awards that shine a national spotlight on these businesses.

This huge accolade means so much to us – and it didn’t end there!

We were also voted fifth in the national People’s Choice category, and named runner-up in the Health & Welfare Family Business of the Year category at the awards, which were held at the Royal Geographical Society in London.

Deborah Stock, our founder and Managing Director, who collected the People’s Choice for Yorkshire Award, said: “We can’t thank everyone enough who took the time to back us and vote for us.

“Receiving this level of support on a national scale, with family underpinning our #feelthelove ethos, has blown us away.

“The categories we’ve been recognised in represent everything we stand for – and it’s wonderful to know that the public and the judges believe in us too.

“Well done to all of the winners and finalists – they’re all incredible, and it was an honour to be among such outstanding company at the awards.”

Organisers say the National Family Business of the Year Awards recognise the outstanding contribution that family-owned businesses make to the economy, communities and society, celebrating excellence, innovation, resilience and long-term stewardship across generations.

This is the latest national recognition we’ve received and we couldn’t be prouder.

We’ve enjoyed an exceptional period of success both locally and nationally, with a treble of award wins since November 2024.

We were awarded the Growth Award at the Hull and East Yorkshire Business Awards 2024, the Best for Recruitment, Training, Retention and Motivation award at the prestigious national Care Sector Supplier Awards 2025, and Best Family Business at the Yorkshire Post Business Awards 2025.

We were also shortlisted in the staffing section of the Supplier of the Year category at the National Care Awards in November last year.

Deborah said: “Our business continues to go from strength-to-strength because of our incredible team, dedicated staff, and our outstanding partners.

“We can’t wait to continue to grow and build on our strong relationships, and we have a very exciting future ahead of us as we strive to continue to make a difference every day.”
