Trusted to care

A closely-knit team of managers, carers, nurses and support colleagues – and each of us is dedicated to your loved one’s care, health and wellbeing.

I started in health and social care in 2022, having worked for the Care Quality Commission and in roles including Care Coordinator, Home Support Officer and General Manager. I hold a BA (Hons) Health & Social Care and a Level 5 Diploma in Leadership & Management. I’m also proud to be a dementia pioneer and a mentor in mental health.

Before joining Metchley Manor, I was a Regional Support Manager for a large care provider, overseeing residential dementia, general nursing, palliative care and younger adults with enduring mental health needs.

I’m passionate about putting residents at the heart of everything we do. For me, person-centred care means making sure every day is meaningful and special for each individual we support. I feel privileged to share my experience with such a dedicated team and to lead the way in delivering exceptional care and service to residents and their families.
