Alana Brown-Telfer

Job Title: Activities Coordinator of the Bethany House LTD and Bethshan Nursing Home LTD

I love being the activity coordinatorat Bethany House because it allows me to bring joy, purpose, and connection to the lives of our residents every day. After 23 years with The Bethany House Group, this role has become so much more than a job—it’s a passion that I take great pride in. I’ve had the privilege of getting to know so many wonderful individuals, each with their own stories, talents, and needs, and creating activities that engage their minds, lift their spirits, and make them feel valued is incredibly rewarding.


I hold a Level 5 qualification in Leadership and Management in Health and Social Care, as well as business and customer service qualifications, which have all helped me grow both personally and professionally in my role. I’m also looking forward to undertaking more training specifically around activities so I can continue to develop and bring even more creative, meaningful experiences to those I support.
