THE excitement is building ahead of this year’s Western Telegraph Health and Care Awards, which take place tonight. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the event, which has BMI Werndale Hospital and the Bluestone Foundation as co-headline sponsors, is broadcast online via the Western Telegraph’s Facebook page. Dr Hilary Jones hosts the ceremony, which starts at 7pm, while there will be messages of support from celebrities including rugby legend Shane Williams and Gavin & Stacey actress Joanna Page. The health and social care sector has been pivotal in the fight to keep Covid-19 at bay, and all of this year’s finalists know all too well just how testing a time it has been.
