From the initial search for a suitable Care Home for Mum through to now, after two years of residency, I have nothing but praise for the support and responsiveness to Mum and family from the Manager and ALL staff. At all times Mum has received loving support and care through encouragement, patience and diligence and all in a highly professional manner. Any medical or day-to-day concerns have been worked through and resolved effectively with respect for all concerned, always considering the needs of Mum first and foremost. The Care Home facilities and ways of working are first rate, with attention to details in all areas ensuring a very high standard of care and support for Mum, in a warm, friendly and family-orientated environment. A variety of tailored physical and social activities ensure that Mum is kept active, physically and mentally, in line with her individual needs.
Overall, I highly recommend Cherry Hinton Care Home and reiterate my praise and gratitude to ALL involved.

Before this, I spent 19 years working with another provider, where I held various roles, including team leader, deputy manager, and Home manager, and worked as a registered nurse. These experiences have allowed me to develop knowledge and skills I am eager to share with the team. At the same time, I’m committed to learning from each of you and embracing new growth opportunities.
I look forward to meeting your expectations and working together to achieve outstanding results.

I have had the privilege of serving as Hotel Services Manager and Head Chef at Cherry Hinton Care Home for over six years. Originally from the small island state of Grenada, I bring with me a lifelong passion for hospitality, deeply rooted in the culture and natural beauty of my homeland. In Grenada, hospitality is more than an industry; it is a way of life, woven seamlessly into our connection with people and nature.
My career in hospitality began in Grenada, where I developed a profound appreciation for service excellence within natural, sustainable environments. This philosophy continues to shape my professional practice, as I strive to create welcoming, nurturing settings that honour both people and the environment.
Care, catering, innovation, and sustainability have become increasingly important focuses for me, driven by a strong desire for continuous learning and the pursuit of new challenges. I am passionate about integrating sustainable principles into every aspect of my work, ensuring that the hospitality experience is not only of the highest standard but also respectful of the world around us.
I am committed to delivering exceptional service with authenticity, warmth, and integrity, while embracing opportunities for growth and innovation within the hospitality sector.
