I think it's fair to say that my mum (who speaks for herself, of course!) is still undecided about leaving her independent living, but I don't think there's any more that you could all have done to make her welcome as Wellington Vale. We will see what the future holds.
Once again, many thanks for making her stay so enjoyable.

What I Do:
As the general manager I am responsible for the day-to-day management of the home. I support and lead every department and team member to ensure we deliver quality care and the best home experience we can to our wonderful residents. It is also very important for me to be available for our residents and their families, to remind them my door is always open, and they are welcome!
My Experience:
I have had the privilege of working in care since the age of 17. My very first role was as a care assistant and then I worked hard to gain the qualifications and experience to become a registered nurse specialising in Orthopaedics. I have always had a passion for working with our elderly population and transitioned over to the social care sector.
I have worked within both large and small organisations and have been in a variety of roles including 'Head of Care and Operations Director’. After a career change joining Hampshire Constabulary for a period of 6 years, my heart took me back to working again with the elderly which I love.
About Me:
My out-of-office activities have included obtaining the rank of Captain in the Territorial Army, something I am very proud of. I really enjoy keeping active in various sports including boot camp and I am currently training for a 100-mile walking challenge. I very much look forward to meeting you at Wellington Vale.
What I Do:
As the Home Admission Advisor, I am the main point of contact for new residents and their families. I guide and support them through the decision process of choosing a care home by providing them with information on the choice of our care options, facilities, and the expertise of our team. The best way for residents and families to ‘feel’ our beautiful home is to tour it, so I love to show them around and give them an opportunity to see for themselves everything we have to offer and to meet our incredible team!
My Experience:
I returned to the UK in 2012 after working in Ibiza & Italy in the Tourism sector for 14 years. On my return, I joined the music and entertainment industry, managing DJs and acts from home before venturing back out into the workplace and joining the Wellington Vale team.
About Me:
I live locally with my husband Tim, my son Luca, stepchildren Harry and Lucy, along with my brother-in-law Matt and 15-month-old grandson Caspian. Our beautiful 4-year-old collie, called Sox, completes our crazy but happy family life!
What I Do:
My role is to compose activities and events for the residents that are inclusive, enjoyable and exciting. I liaise within the local community, arranging community group visits within the home and to outside events too – this helps to promote a social network for our residents. My role includes creating activity plans based on well-being, mental stimulation, physical well-being and, of course, the most important ingredient: fun!
My Experience:
I started at Wellington Vale in January 2021 as part of the care team. Every day, I always took pride in ensuring that I left residents with a smile on their faces. This helped me to make the easy decision of joining the activities team in May 2023. Exactly a year later to the day, I started my role as the Activities Lead, and I am still making sure there are lots of smiles and laughter too!
About Me:
I live locally in a shared house with my lively housemates. During my time off, I like to crochet and go for nice woodland or beach walks. I have many lovely and kind friends and family that I’m so grateful to have in my life!
What I Do:
As the head chef at Wellington Vale, I am responsible for providing a healthy, well-balanced variety of meals and snacks to our residents every day. My amazing team and I enjoy creating seasonal and themed menus on special days of the year, which our residents love! It is important to me that every resident looks forward to mealtimes and their meals are packed with nutrition and include any special dietary requirements.
My Experience:
I have been lucky to work in some beautiful restaurants, in particular Head Chef at ‘The Canteen’, Chef de Partie at ‘The Briny’ (AA Rosette 1 star) and Sous Chef at ‘The Elsted Inn’ in the heart of the South Downs.
About Me:
I have a great passion for cooking and love to bring a restaurant standard to Wellington Vale. I love to sing and dance around the home, and I really enjoy getting to know each resident. I am a family man and have a beautiful daughter Ivy.
