Karen Howell
Hi, my name is Karen, and I am the General Manager here at Kingsland Manor. Welcome to our website!
I have been a registered nurse since 1990. I have worked in both the NHS and the private sector. As a General Manager, my aim is to ensure that, along with my team, we continue to deliver person-centred care to those we support, placing them at the heart of everything we do and meeting individual needs with the passion and commitment they deserve. I am passionate about setting and maintaining high standards of care with attention to detail.
James Sibthorpe
Hi, my name is James, and I am the Deputy Manager and a Senior Nurse. I have worked at Kingsland since 2017 and really enjoy it here.
I am an experienced Nurse, with over 15 years of varied experiences, both in the UK and overseas, in a wide variety of healthcare settings, including the NHS, the voluntary sector, NGOs, the charity sector and now the private sector.
I have been a Nurse since 2002 and have worked in many clinical fields of nursing, such as A&E, sexual health, aid work, elderly medicine and end of life care.
I enjoy working as a Nurse because I am dedicated to improving the lives of others and supporting those in difficult times of their lives.

Sarah Collins
Hi, my name is Sarah and I am the Activities Coordinator. I love working at Kingsland House because we have so much fun. The residents and I enjoy various different activities, but our favourite thing to do is going out on the minibus to see the local areas, and of course, for coffee and cake!

The best part of being at Kingsland House is the staff and residents – they make this house a home.
