Championing Social Care has made the decision to extend the deadline for entries to this year’s Care Sector’s Got Talent ‘22 competition by one week.
Mandip Bhogal, partner at Knight Frank and committee member of Championing Social Care, commented: “We’ve had so many requests for extra time from those currently away on holiday that we feel it only fair to extend the deadline.
“From the auditions we’ve already had, I cannot wait to see what this next seven days will bring.”
From the volunteer team behind Championing Social Care and Care Home Open Week, this is the care sector’s nationwide search to uncover the hidden talents of the wonderful people within the health and social care sector.
The competition is open to anyone within the care sector, those who work for a care service, suppliers to the sector or someone who receives care!
To ensure the competition is easy to enter, entrants simply need to upload their audition videos from their phone or tablet by Friday, 12 August.
Following the format of a talent shows like Britain’s Got Talent, those who make it through to the next stage will be invited to perform live in front of an illustrious panel of judges at the competition’s first in-person live final in Birmingham.
The final will also be live-streamed around the world, watched by care teams, families and friends and other members of the care sector.
Not only will the winning act receive £500 in Love2Shop vouchers, they will be provided the amazing opportunity to perform live at this year’s Care Show at the NEC, Birmingham, and over the same weekend perform at the Leaders in Care Awards, with travel and accommodation covered for the trip!
Angela Boxall, COO at Majesticare and committee member of Championing Social Care, commented: “Last year Care Sector’s Got Talent took the nation by storm with the fantastic Stronger Together Community choir.
“This year with the support of our brilliant sponsors Florence and the Tower Fire Group, we are back and bigger than ever, with our very first live final.’
