Bluebird Care Lewisham & Southwark Celebrates Dementia Care Award Finalist Recognition

Bluebird Care Lewisham & Southwark is celebrating after Rachel McCormack was named a finalist in the Dementia Community Care Worker Award at the Dementia Care Awards 2026.

The national awards recognise people who go above and beyond to support those living with dementia and the families who care for them. They celebrate the everyday care that helps people continue living the life they want, surrounded by familiar routines, treasured memories and the people who matter most.

A passion for supporting people living with dementia

For Rachel, caring for others is more than a job. It's something she brings to every part of her life.

A dedicated mother of four, Rachel balances family life with her role supporting people living with dementia. Through patience, understanding and commitment, she has helped many people and families through the changes dementia can bring.

Whether she is helping someone remain independent at home, supporting familiar routines, or simply taking the time to listen, Rachel brings warmth and reassurance to every visit. Her kindness and dedication have earned the trust of customers, families and colleagues alike.
