Meet The Manager
Working in care was something I always wanted to do, after working in manufacturing for 20 years I decided to take a change in my career to do what I always had a passion for.
​
I feel the rewards of supporting individuals and staff to make a positive step forward on their journey gives me a sense of purpose in life.
I feel it is important in life not to say why something can’t happen but to work as a team to ensure something does happen., I always look for the positive in every situation and every day is a good day to learn.
