Head Chef

Hello, my name is Nicci and I am the Head Chef here at Hickathrift. I've been working as a chef since 2010 and as a Head Chef since 2019. In 2023 I was the winner of the Lincolnshire Head Chef in Care Home Award. 

I pride myself on preparing high quality food, and seeing the residents enjoy the dishes that the team and myself create makes me very happy.  Our Hospitality team are committed to providing seasonal home cooked menus offering choice, nutrition and quality - including exciting menus to 

specific individual dietary needs and all appetites. The food we produce is hugely important to our residents which is why it is absolutely imperative that we always get their feedback and continuously  meet the needs and nutritional quota of every single resident who chooses to make Hickathrift their home.
