A Day Of Celebration
Glen Spindely has been a respite care resident at Highfield Care home for over 8 years. He stays at the home for a fortnight every two months and the staff at Highfield are now an extension of his family. Back in October 2011, he told us that his daughter and only child was getting married in March 2012, but due to his needs and being bed bound would mean unfortunately he would not be able to attend her special day. Mandy, his daughter asked if it would be possible to set up an internet link to the wedding venue as they had wireless broadband there and could set up a webcam at there end for her father to be able to watch the ceremony. Amazingly this was made possible and Glen was thrilled to be able to watch his daughter on her big day. Thanks to all who were involved.

Russell Rollinson - Head Chef
After three years at college studying catering and hospitality I worked in various sectors of the catering industry, including hotels, pubs and restaurants. I began working for Barchester Healthcare 9 years ago and was initially recruited as an assistant chef but this was at another home. For the last 4 years I have been really proud to be catering manager/head chef here at Highfield. Home life is really important to me. I live with my lovely partner and my beautiful 1 year old daughter who keeps me busy!! But in what little spare time I have I enjoy football and playing darts.
