Sharon has worked as the Activities Co-ordinator at Paternoster House since 2013 but has worked in the care industry for over 18 years.
Sharon has completed a level 3 qualification in dementia care and has completed her care certificate too. Sharon likes that every day at work is different, one day she could be organising a party, trips out or organising outdoor games the next she could be organising dementia friendly cinemas, entertainers or just arranging a varied programme of activities that are tailored to meet the residents’ interests and preferences.
Sharon’s fondest memory is when Paternoster House had two residents who turned 100, all the staff dressed in vintage clothes from a variety of era’s, and everyone enjoyed a brilliant party.
Outside of work Sharon loves taking her two terriers for a walk and socialising with friends and family.
