Glencorse Care Home

Leigh has over 10 years of nursing experience. She began her career in the transplant unit at the Royal Infirmary before moving into the private sector, where she developed both her clinical expertise and people management skills as a Deputy Manager, playing a key role in commissioning a brand-new care home. She later completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Person-Centred Practice, focusing on advancing practice through clinical assessment and prescribing, as part of the NHS Specialist Practitioner District Nurse course.

Although she valued her time in the NHS, Leigh missed the world of Care Home Management and was delighted to return to the sector. Two years on, she is especially excited to now be part of commissioning another new home with the Glencorse team.

Passionate about people, Leigh is dedicated to ensuring residents receive exceptional, person-centred care. She places great importance on fostering a supportive and motivating environment for staff, encouraging their growth and development, while also recognising the vital role families play in creating a warm and inclusive home community.

Carolyn qualified as a nurse in 2012 and has always been passionate about caring for the elderly. She is thrilled to be part of Glencorse Care Home, where she looks forward to building a strong, supportive team and delivering gold-standard care to residents. Carolyn brings with her extensive experience in elderly care and care home management.

Care homes are in Mark’s DNA. His grandmother opened her own care home many years ago, so Mark truly understands what life in a care home is all about. Over the years, he’s been deeply involved in the administrative and financial side of care home life and is known as our go-to guru for all things finance. Mark is thrilled to be part of the Glencorse team and can’t wait to welcome new residents into our wonderful community.

Karen has been a nurse for many years and brings with her a wealth of knowledge, experience, and compassion. She’s the first to admit that her true passion has always been caring for older people — it’s where she feels most at home. Throughout her career, Karen has dedicated herself to supporting residents in care homes, building strong relationships, and ensuring every individual receives the dignity, respect, and comfort they deserve. We’re delighted to have her as part of the Glencorse team, where her experience and genuine love for elderly care truly shine.
