EDITOR'S VOICE Editor’s Voice Hello and welcome to the May issue of Tomorrow’s Care.


Aſter three months of readers voting in their thousands for our annual awards, we can now reveal the winners. It was a tightly fought contest with a hugely diverse set of finalists. You can check out the profiles of the three winners as well as find a list of the top ten on page 10. Please remember, any product or service can be nominated for the Tomorrow’s Care Awards by getting in touch with the editors between now and the end of August.


In this issue Tork and JLA head up our Cleaning & Hygiene feature. The former asks how care home cleaners can achieve a germ-free environment in the most efficient and effective way possible, whilst the latter discusses new technology available to specialist dementia care homes to reduce Covid-19 and other types of infection.


In our Mental Health feature, The National Care Forum shines a spotlight on how people with learning disabilities or autism are disproportionately not getting the mental health support they need, and in our Fitness & Exercise section, Stewart McGinn, Managing Director at Baycroſt Care Homes, shares six low-intensity workout tips that are perfect for the health and wellbeing of elderly individuals.
