Barchester Lindum House

Hi, my name is Jayne and I am the General Manager here at Lindum.

I have worked in the social care industry for over 30 years 25 within management; I qualified as a Registered Manager in 2001.

Social care is my vocation I feel at home in the environment, I have a passion to cascade my wealth of knowledge and experiences throughout my team in order to fulfil and enhance the quality of life for those people who receive our care.

Thank you for taking the time to look further into what we have to offer to you or your loved one. Here is an opportunity to look at some of our staff team in the home, who all play a vital role in day-to-day life.

Myself and my team look forward to welcoming you to our home.

Hi, my name is Anthony. I qualified as a Registered General Nurse in the Philippines in 2018. I am very happy to say that Barchester supported me with my move to the UK in June 2022, and provided me with the relevant training and support to get my UK registration PIN so as to work as a registered nurse here at Lindum House.

My role is to support all nursing needs of those living at the home. I am very dedicated to my job and find it very rewarding. I put my relevant nursing skills into practice throughout my working day.

Wendy joined our wonderful team of care assistants at the home in 2021.

She speaks warmly about how much she enjoys getting to know our residents, listening to their stories, experiences and how she has a wish to help others.

Away from the home, Wendy loves to spend time making memories with her grandson and going for walks with her partner, Andy and Bella, their golden Labrador.

Matt has been working at Lindum House since the beginning of 2025 and thoroughly enjoys working with the residents and the Lindum team. He has worked in the social care sector for many years and is very passionate about what he does.

Matt's speciality is home baking, and he really enjoys making cakes for the residents' birthdays & special events/activities. Matt's past catering experience started in the education sector, which then led him to become the food and beverage manager at a local golf club. He then moved to the social care sector. Currently, still a member of the National Association of Care Catering, which, in 2023, they won catering team of the year.

Matt's home life is very busy as he enjoys socialising and regularly walks his dog on the beach every day.
Matt has already made a positive start to Lindum, as we are welcoming 'meet the chef' back next month, at the residents' request.

Hi, my name is Stephanie, and I am proud to be an activity assistant here at Lindum House. I have been in post since October 2022. I am no stranger to Lindum House, having worked here previously for 5 years, the role of an activities assistant with over 15 years’ experience.

As the home's activity assistant, I feel it is most important to know the residents, their likes and dislikes this ensures that person-centred program of events and activities can be planned and facilitated.

Here at Lindum House, we are fortunate to have our minibus so that we can have regular outings to local attractions and sometimes further afield – we are always open to suggestions for our excursions.

I get great job satisfaction when I see the residents smiling, laughing and generally enjoying the activity I am facilitating – seeing the residents smile and being happy is very rewarding!

Hi, my name is Bob. I am Head of Maintenance here at Lindum House. I joined the team here at Lindum in October 2022, but have worked for Barchester for over 13 years in total.

Maintenance is paramount when it comes to Lindum House and the people who live, work and visit here. I take my role very seriously and enjoy keeping the home environment at a high standard, ultimately creating a safe and warm place for people to live in and for my colleagues to work in.

I take great pride in my work and feel a sense of achievement when I have refurbished an area.

Hi, my name is Sarah. I am Head Housekeeper at Lindum House. I have worked since 1995, and I am proud to be the Home's Head of Housekeeping.

Hi there, I'm Kelly. My role at Lindum House ensures all of our residents always have lots of fun activities to look forward to.

I've worked in health and social care for around 15 years. I started on care, worked through domestic, kitchen assistant and found my calling with activities!

I'm a strong believer in 'treat people how you wish to be treated', everyone is different, and it's important to focus on each individual's wants and needs, to encourage and nurture life, you only live once!

Our residents' smiles are my reward; it makes me so happy to see them enjoying themselves.

Hi, my name is Jacqui and I am proud to be the Hair & Beauty Therapist here at Lindum House. I have been in post since May 2004. I am no stranger to Lindum House, having worked here for 20 years.

As the home's Hairdresser & Manicurist, I feel a sense of achievement every single week, knowing that my residents look and feel so much better after they visit me.

Here at Lindum House, we are fortunate to have our little salon, which the residents relax and socialise in; it really is quite the little social hub! I feel that social activities at any stage of life are important to a person’s wellbeing, both physically & mentally.

In my spare time, I enjoy swimming & Paddleboarding, I just love the water; I also have a house rabbit called ‘Billy Bear’, whom I may bring in to visit the residents occasionally.

It's my absolute pleasure to visit Lindum House weekly and make our residents feel Fabulous; Not to mention getting them ready for Lindum’s parties and monthly social events.
