A Merseyside-based support worker was invited to attend the Royal garden party at Buckingham Palace in honour of the Queen's outstanding contribution to society during the pandemic.
Lesley McCormack, from Netherton, has dedicated 16 years to supporting people with a learning disability through her work with UK-based charity, Mencap. Immensely passionate about her job in social care, the 38-year-old's work hasn't gone unnoticed within her community.
Last week, she met with HRH the Countess of Wessex and was recognised for going above and beyond through the pandemic; taking extra shifts when people were isolating, picking up shopping and dropping off food parcels and PPE to those who needed it – or just touching base with other carers to ensure they were okay.
