Sanctuary Supported Living
Sanctuary Supported Living has been shortlisted for three national housing awards, recognising organisational excellence and outstanding individual achievement within the housing sector.
The organisation has been named among the finalists at the Housing Heroes Awards in two categories, Best Company Health and Wellbeing Initiative and Employer of the Year for Housing Providers. The recognition reflects Sanctuary Supported Living’s purpose-led approach and commitment to supporting both colleagues and customers to be their best.
In addition to the organisational shortlisting, Carly Stocks, a Local Service Manager at Sanctuary Supported Living, has been selected as a finalist at the Women in Housing Awards for Woman of the Year in the category for housing providers with over 15,000 homes. Carly manages one of the organisation’s specialist homelessness services and has been recognised for her strong leadership and commitment to delivering high‑quality services that support positive outcomes.
"What matters most to us is the difference our colleagues make every day"
Director of Sanctuary Supported Living, Dave Shaw, said, “What matters most to us is the difference our colleagues make every day, whether that be supporting customers, strengthening communities or looking out for one another at work. To have that approach recognised nationally is something that everyone at Sanctuary Supported Living can be proud of.”
The Housing Heroes Awards will take place alongside the Women in Housing Awards on 22 June at Manchester Central, as part of Housing 2026. Winners will be announced during an awards ceremony followed by a celebration event bringing together housing professionals from across the sector.
