My name is Ahmet Akkur and I am from Turkey. I have been In Scotland since 2005 and have been working at Drummond Grange since l started my career as a Kitchen Assistant, eventually joining the Chef Academy, where l worked with the most experienced chefs and hospitality specialists in the business. I was promoted to Head Chef at Drummond Grange in 2010, and was named Chef of the Year at the 2015 Barchester Care Awards. As Head Chef, l have many responsibilities, which primarily includes providing tasty and nutritious food to the people we care for. All meals are cooked from fresh, seasonal produce; we set our standards high and always cook to meet the needs and desires of residents.

I began working at Drummond Grange as a Maintenance Assistant in 2008. I became Head of Maintenance in 2016. My main responsibility is to keep our home and grounds in good working order and to a high standard. As a painter I am often seen around our home with a paint brush in hand keeping our décor up to a high standard. I am always willing to help families and residents personalise their rooms in any way I can.
