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.

My favourite part of the day in my role as home manager at Harcourt Gardens is doing my walk arounds and spending time with colleagues and residents. I enjoy being present in the home and seeing the meaningful moments that happen when people feel safe, valued and supported.

I hold a degree and Level 5 qualification in leadership and management, and before joining Harcourt Gardens I worked as the CEO of a dementia charity. Throughout my career I have learned the importance of patience, understanding and being non-judgmental. I believe a home manager should be pleasant, positive and genuinely caring, and I bring those values into my role every day.

A proud career highlight for me was creating a 1950s village as part of a dementia-friendly environment, as well as writing a book on care homes. I am equally proud to be part of a team that strives to make life better for others. The most important part of my role is being a voice and advocate for residents and colleagues whenever they need support.

Outside of work I enjoy horse riding, baking and taking care of animals.
