The Changing Lives Colchester Staff Awards is a celebration of everything that makes our organisation special — the people. It’s a chance to recognise the dedication, compassion, and hard work of our incredible team who go above and beyond every day to support the young people in our care.

From support staff and mentors to education leads and safeguarding champions, each award highlights the positive impact our team has across the organisation. The stories behind each nomination remind us that every conversation, every breakthrough moment, and every act of care helps transform lives.

These awards aren’t just about recognition — they’re about celebrating the values that drive us. At Changing Lives Community Services, we believe our staff are the heartbeat of everything we do. Their commitment ensures that every young person feels valued, supported, and inspired to reach their potential.

By recognising our team’s achievements, we continue to build a culture rooted in compassion, teamwork, and belief in the potential of every child.

A huge thank you to all our nominees and winners — you remind us every day why we do what we do: to change lives, one young person at a time.
