On entering the home the staff are there to meet and greet you. Good relationship with all staff both nursing and domestic. Great Care is taken to promote a caring environment with a peaceful atmosphere. Support is given to me as well when things are not good. (with my husband) He is settled and relaxed, eats and sleeps well. I feel I can approach the medical staff if I need any advise at any time. Above all a clean and welcoming home. Food is excellent.

I have to say that the staff at Ty Plasgellar are absolutely phenomenal with Dad. They treat me like one of the family which means I am always able to approach them with any questions or concerns.

The most important thing for me is that my dad is treated as an individual and as a human being, and this is never an issue with the staff. They laugh with him, joke with him and treat him as they would have done had they known him before his diagnosis. There is always some activity going on to keep him and the other residents stimulated and engaged.

Overall, happy with Plasgellar Care Home. On occasions, it is somewhat upsetting to see my husband's chest area very wet from where he dribbles. I feel he needs to be changed more often when this happens. I have provided lots of cravats/bibs to help with this problem.

Mam has been well looked after in the home, she seems a lot happier and healthier in the home. In her last care home she had repeated falls, UTI's and incidents of aggression, these are now no longer the case. There are plenty of activities to keep her amused and engaged, when she is in the frame of mind to participate. It is a huge relief for me and my family, after the previous disastrous experience in the other home. Well done to the staff of the home.

I am an experienced healthcare professional with over 20 years of experience supporting older people, committed to delivering high-quality, person-centred care. At Brynmawr Care Village, I lead with compassion and clarity, working closely with residents, families, and colleagues to ensure every individual remains at the centre of their care.
A standout moment in my career was supporting two young women following their dementia diagnoses. With consistent encouragement from myself and my team, they regained confidence, created a fundraising group, organised charity events, and even appeared on national television. Their journey is a reminder of how the right support can transform lives, an approach I bring to Brynmawr every day.
Kindness is at the core of my leadership style. For me, it means understanding each person’s story, respecting their wishes, and ensuring they feel valued and heard. This reflects in the culture I foster within Brynmawr, one where dignity, empathy, and individual strengths guide our work.
I also believe strongly in strengthening community connections. At Brynmawr, I actively develop partnerships with local clubs and schools, creating opportunities that enrich residents’ lives and strengthen the home’s ties within the community.
Outside of work, I volunteer at my local football club and enjoy spending time with my family, particularly relaxing at my caravan in West Wales.
