Meet the Beeston View Memory Lane Community Team

Hi, I'm Themby and I'm the Deputy Manager here at Iddenshall Hall & Beeston View. I joined the team in 2021 as a Nurse, and then was promoted to Deputy Manager/Clinical Lead in October 2023.

I have been qualified as an Adult Nurse since 2012 and have worked as a Nurse Manager in various departments since then. I find my role very rewarding - I love that I get job satisfaction and can feed my passion for Nursing and Care at the same time, it's wonderful being part of this team!

Outside of work, I enjoy family time and watching football, and I'm always down for a road trip and some sight-seeing.

Hi! Our names are Karen, Luisa & Julie, and we are the Activities Coordinators here at Iddenshall Hall & Beeston View.

Our aim is to always deliver a wide range of fun and stimulating activities which are appealing, can be enjoyed and are inclusive to all of our residents. Our work is very rewarding and it is a pleasure planning events and activities each month. We really enjoy interacting with residents and learning about their interests, preferences and experiences.

There is nothing more rewarding to us than seeing smiling faces and hearing real laughter every day. Look out for our activities and events - you are welcome to join us!

My name is Sally, and I have a dedicated team that work hard to ensure that the home maintains Barchester's high standards, and that they work to create a relaxed, personal atmosphere for residents, relatives and staff. Residents are clearly the focus for this team, who ensure that all laundry and housekeeping is delivered to a high standard.

Hi, my name is Gary, and I am the maintenance assistant here at Beeston View.

My name is Julie, and I have worked at Iddenshall Hall & Beeston View since 2003. During my time in this role, I have gained my NVQ in Business Administration Level 2 and 3. I have 12 years previous experience as a care assistant and gaining a NVQ Level 2, 3 and A1 Assessors award in care.

I support and advise families who are facing the task of trying to find a suitable care home for their loved ones. I work closely with the General Manager to ensure the efficient and smooth running of the administrative team and financial systems within the home.

John leads the catering team, creating and developing seasonal home cooked menus that are nutritious and varied. John ensures he knows each resident and their preferences, keeping them satisfied with a diverse and delicious range of meals. The team also try to ‘out cook’ each other, especially on the cake and biscuit front!

Hi, I'm Tracy and I'm the Admin Assistant here at Iddenshall Hall & Beeston View. I joined the Admin team in June 2024. As the Admin Assistant, I am based on our reception where I meet and greet visitors, and pick up any queries or questions you may have about our home.

Before joining the Admin team, I was the home's Hairdresser for 2 years. I had previously had my own salon for 23 years, then I decided I wanted a change, and wanted to go back to the operations and administration side of things. I look forward to greeting you on your visit to us!
