Home care workers have been thanked with spring flowers for their winter dedication.

The staff from care company HICA at Home were taken to the Flower Shop in North Street, Keighley, to receive bouquets.

Bosses wanted to thank them for battling through snow earlier this year to reach vulnerable clients around Keighley.

Some walked through blizzards to bypass blocked roads, while others went into work on their day off to use their 4x4 vehicles to transport fellow staff.

HICA at Home provides services, such as home care, cleaning and gardening, across Yorkshire, including Keighley.

HICA at Home spokesman, Angela Spencer, said staff went above and beyond the call of duty.

She added: “Without hesitation they put their own safety and comfort to one side as they made treacherous journeys to attend to their service users during the prolonged winter weather. “These dedicated individuals did not miss a single call, and therefore maintained this crucial service to people in their own homes, who would otherwise have been left in jeopardy.”
