Inspired Villages named ‘Seniors Housing Operator of the Year’ at sector awards ceremony

Retirement villages operator and developer Inspired Villages took home two awards at the inaugural Seniors Housing Awards, including the ‘Grands Prix’ award for ‘Seniors Housing Operator of the Year’.

The award ceremony, held on 21st October in a glittering ceremony at the Landmark London, also saw Inspired recognised for the design quality of its villages with another win in the ‘Innovation in Design and Built Environment’ category.

Organised by HealthInvestor magazine, the Seniors Housing Awards recognises the best talent operating within or advising the retirement living sector, with strong competition in every category. Inspired Villages were also finalists in the ‘Best Hospitality, Retail and Wellness’ and ‘Seniors Housing Development of the Year – Large’ categories.

Jamie Bunce, CEO of Inspired Villages, commented: “I’m delighted that the work Inspired Villages does to help older people live the best years of their lives with us has been recognised at the Seniors Housing Awards. Winning both the ‘Seniors Housing Operator of the Year’ and the ‘Innovation in Design and Built Environment’ award is a testament to the fantastic work everyone within the Inspired Villages family does and I couldn’t be prouder. I want to offer my congratulations to all the other winners and finalists too – it’s so important to recognise the great work the retirement living sector is doing to help address the shortage of appropriate homes for older people and relieve the strain on this country’s health and social care system.”
