I started my career at Wood Care Group as a night care assistant. I was ambitious to climb the ladder and was supported all the way. I’m very proud to say I am now the manager of Longwood Lodge and I love how as a company we all help each other and I know I always have support whenever I need it.

I love the fact that everyday my hard work benefits our residents and that my work, skills and enthusiasm are recognised. I have never been happier and love my role it's a pleasure to work for this company.
