We’re delighted to share that our COO and Co-Founder, Sofia Younis, has been shortlisted for the BPA Empowering Women Awards 2026 in the Business Woman of the Year category.
Sofia has dedicated over 30 years to improving outcomes for children, young people, and families through her leadership in paediatric nursing, fostering, adoption, residential care, and specialist support services.
Under Sofia’s leadership, Serenity Specialist Care was recently Highly Commended at the Solihull Civic Honours Awards 2026 in the Community Parenting category, recognising the organisation’s positive impact on children, young people, and the wider community.
Alongside her work in social care, Sofia is Practice Director at MADE Architecture (MADE Group), an award-winning practice recognised for excellence, innovation, and its commitment to delivering meaningful community impact through design and a approach.
