Meet the Crandon Springs Care Home Team

My career in the care sector spans several years across a range of settings. I am deeply passionate about supporting older adults and ensuring their needs are met with compassion and professionalism. I will always prioritise person-centred support and foster wellbeing for everyone I work with.

At Crandon Springs, I support our General Manager in the daily operations of the care home, helping sustain our high standards of care and a positive atmosphere for residents and staff. I’m dedicated to preserving the dignity and respect of those we support, while also investing in our team’s growth - working closely with colleagues to provide training, resources, and encouragement. 

Hello, my name is Susan, I am a Care Community Lead at Crandon Springs . I have a wealth of experience and moved to Crandon Springs because of the homes reputation for outstanding care.

In my role as Activities Coordinator, I design full and engaging life enrichment programmes that promote our residents' emotional and physical well-being. 

With a background in teaching and over a decade as a childminder, I value intergenerational connections and regularly incorporate opportunities for residents to interact with younger generations. I particularly enjoy supporting our residents to get creative through arts and crafts, and to experience the outdoors, whether through our gardening club or trips and picnics away from the home. My goal is to foster a vibrant, active environment where everyone feels connected and fulfilled. Please feel free to say hello when you visit!

Before joining Crandon Springs, I ran my own property maintenance company for several years. Crandon Springs Care Home is a stunning home with lovely residents and staff and I work hard every day to maintain its high standards to keep everyone safe and comfortable.

Some of our residents often remind me of the time they watched me perform whilst dressed as a pumpkin!

Hello my name is Karen, I am the Admin Manager here at Crandon Springs.  I feel very privileged to be a part of the team and making a difference in our resident’s life.  No day is the same here, which I absolutely love!

When I'm not busy keeping the home running smoothly, I love to travel and explore new places, am a big Manchester City fan and love music.  I will often be one of the first faces that you'll see here, so I look forward to welcoming you into our wonderful home.

With over 40 years of culinary experience, I’ve developed a great understanding of how thoughtful, nourishing meals support both physical health and emotional wellbeing. My career began the Royal Navy, where I learned the importance of precision, teamwork, and the power of good food. Since then, I’ve cooked in some of Wells’ most respected restaurants and hotels and in care home settings, gaining insight into the unique nutritional needs of older adults.

At Crandon Springs, I take pleasure in crafting home‑cooked meals that are both delicious and tailored to our residents’ individual preferences and dietary requirements. It’s rewarding to see the delight a thoughtfully prepared dish brings, and to know it makes a difference in someone’s day.
