I have worked with the elderly since I was just 16 years old and I qualified as a nurse in 2015, specialising in elderly nursing.

I enjoy working in the care sector, as no two days are ever the same, and Ashcombe House has a home from home feel, which I just love

When I have spare time, I enjoy traveling, hiking and spending time with family.  

I have been working at Ashcombe House since 2017. I originally joined as a care assistant before moving to the activities team, and now I am the home's administrator. 

Having had an admin background, this was an easy transition, and I still get to see all our lovely residents day-to-day. Some of them even like to help with making up our brochures and putting our newsletters in envelopes, which they seem to really enjoy.

I’m a fun, loud and outgoing individual who loves organising fun activities for residents at Ashcombe House (and staff, if possible). I’m very creative and keep the residents very active, both mentally and physically In my spare time, I love doing a lot of fundraising, which usually ends up with me sliding in mud.

I have been a chef for over 25 years, working in hotels, schools and restaurants. I have a passion for food and take great pride in my work.

I love working at Ashcombe, as it ticks all my boxes to allow me to have a great work-life balance, whilst still being able to produce high quality, home-cooked meals

In my spare time, I like to collect Leg,  spend time with my family and I love to go to concerts.

Head Housekeeper, Juliana, can be seen with her housekeeping team: Khim, Agness, Irs and Naanda. They all love working at Ashcombe House, ensuring that they maintain a clean environment for residents. They are a friendly and happy team who love their jobs. They enjoy getting to know the residents and always spend time chatting to them whilst they are cleaning the home.
