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.

Prior to joining Asterbury Place, I managed three care homes and worked as an operations manager of a hospice for two years. Before that, I spent nearly 15 years in the NHS, including in cancer and palliative care and cancer service improvement. I’ve undertaken a variety of training and development throughout my career within the NHS, and I also qualified as a Coach and NLP Practitioner in 2018 and am registered with the National Council of Psychotherapists.

I’m a values-driven person, and I was keen to join Care UK because its core values of caring, passionate and teamwork align with my own. In this role, you need to be dynamic, approachable and personable. As Home Manager, I’m there for everyone: residents, relatives and colleagues. It fills me with pride to lead a diverse team who strive to always do their best. My favourite part of each day is my drive home, when I spend time thinking about which resident, relative or colleague’s life I made a difference to that day.

Outside of work, I’m a keen gardener and walker. I like nothing more than walking down to the river wall with not a car in sight to watch the birds, wildlife and boats.
