HICA Group Presents Awards
The HICA Group recently hosted its annual conference and awards dinner at Cave Castle Hotel, near Hull. Delegates and award-winners from each of the Group’s operating divisions enjoyed presentations from a number of speakers, including Ty Platten, Managing Director of Care Homes and Penni Brown, Managing Director of HomeCare and Villages.
The emphasis of the day firmly focused on the challenges and successes of 2010, highlighting HICA’s strengths and future objectives in an increasingly competitive domain.
Fittingly, the day culminated in an awards evening that rewarded some of these successes, with both team and individual accolades.
