Liza Bond is a Partnership of Care Regional Manager. She has built her entire 14-year career within the organisation, beginning as a support worker and progressing through a wide range of leadership roles. Each step in her journey has shaped her professional identity and strengthened her commitment to delivering high-quality adult social care.
Liza first joined Partnership of Care as a support worker, where she gained essential experience supporting individuals in both residential and supported living services. As she developed her skills, she moved into roles such as Senior Support Worker, Team Leader, Deputy Manager, and later Service Delivery Manager. Each position allowed her to deepen her operational knowledge and learn more about effective leadership. Moreover, these roles gave her a strong understanding of what person-centred care truly looks like in practice.

Because of her hands-on experience, she understands the realities of frontline work and supports teams with empathy and clarity.
Liza is passionate about creating inclusive environments where people feel valued, supported, and empowered. She places the voices and choices of the individuals supported at the centre of every decision. In addition, she is committed to professional development and works closely with teams to build confidence, capability, and resilience.
Through consistent oversight, coaching, and a focus on continuous improvement, Liza ensures that all services maintain high standards.
