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 my career with Care UK over 13 years ago, in 2009 as a General Nurse. Over the years I have worked my way through various positions, then becoming Home Manager here at Highbury New Park in 2016.

There’s a lovely welcoming family atmosphere here, and always a new challenge to solve. When time allows, I enjoy chatting to the residents and learning more about their lives.
