Episode 112: The Champion of the Care Sector with Donna Jackson

The Business Awards Show

Donna Jackson is truly the champion of the care sector. She set up her business Carebusiness Bootcamp to help companies struggling with challenges in the industry. During our discussion she expands on these challenges. She tells us how she is trying to ensure her clients get the support and recognition they need to thrive.

Donna is an award-winner, having been named Woman of the Year. Consequently, she held the inaugural Carebusiness Millionaire Circle Awards in March 2024. Her determination to recognise the great efforts of all those running and working in care businesses comes across palpably. That's why she believes awards are particularly important in the care sector for all stakeholders.

Carebusiness Bootcamp was set up in 1990 so Donna could look after her daughter as a young child with learning difficulties. As a result, she has grown her business impressively. In addition, she has helped other businesses grow and deal with the regulatory frameworks in the industry. If you're thinking of setting up a business so you can take a more hands-on approach as a mother, this episode may well convince you that it is the right thing to do.

This edition is a clear illustration of why awards can have such a significant impact on any business. It illustrates how motivating they can be for your employees. Furthermore, discover why recognition can make a such a difference to the confidence your customers have in your organisation. Finally, if you have a family member living in a care home, it will offer you deeper insights. And hopefully, restore faith in the businesses who deliver those vital services.
