“We are thrilled to have been recognised by the Investors in People Rewards 2024. The judges recognised the extent to which ADS values our staff, including them in decision making and service development, and rewarding them for their efforts.
Our last Investors in People assessment in 2023 highlighted the following:
“The staff feel valued, appreciated for the work they do, listened to and involved in decision making, and aware of upcoming plans for the future. They see the benefit of the work that they do, and the impact that the organisation has on the community and they work for an organisation whose values match their own. Overall, these are the ingredients for a thriving, positive and motivated workforce.
