Charles Sadler

Charles Sadler

General Manager

Hello, my name is Charles, and I am the Senior General Manager here at our wonderful Lancaster Grange .

I have worked for Barchester since 2018 as a General Manager and Regional Director for Services in the South and island of Jersey. 
I relocated from Wokingham Berkshire with my wife and 3 children in 2022 and have been at Lancaster Grange since. 
Family and people are extremely important to me and I have worked in healthcare since 1998, initially with the NHS, before moving to management roles with various learning disability charities, and more recently, other elderly care providers.

I think very highly of Barchester, and I have always admired our robust, transparent, organised and well-managed company, and have added my own ethos with Lancaster Granges already long established and experienced care.

Our committed team in every department deserve their reputation and you will struggle to find a more open and inclusive place for the most important people in all our lives to receive the care they richly deserve.

I look forward to welcoming you to our home.

Irina Stelikoviene

Irina Stelikoviene

Deputy Manager

Hello! I am Irina, the Deputy Manager at Lancaster Grange.

I am a proud graduate of De Montfort University, which was my starting point in pursuing a career in mental health nursing with specialisation in Dementia Care.

My experience in supporting General Managers to successfully run services is a result of dedicated contribution to the NHS and to the private sector of care.

I am passionate about Dementia Care. I have been recognised for organising "Music Therapy in Dementia Care" project and contributing to the creation of data analysing tool "Falls Analysis".

Outside of work you can find me either in the gym or in my study room.

I am very excited to be part of the Lancaster Grange team and contribute to the services.

Kate Clark

Kate Clark

Administrator

Kate has worked at Lancaster Grange for many years as a Senior HCA and now our front of house. Kate goes above and beyond for all the people we support here but also for our families, most often being that first person people speak to and therefore the centre of communication at our lovely home.
Kate always has time for absolutely everyone and will take that time to really get to know people. Everything is Kates job and she is seen getting involved in most things in the home from helping the care team, kitchen, activity team and sometimes even driving around some of our lovely people that live here.
Kate is very representative of the fantastic culture here at our wonderful home.

In 2017, I was promoted to Senior RGN. I love my job and enjoy being part of a great team.

John Bowker

John Bowker

Head of Maintenance

Hello, Im John. Im the head of maintenance here at Lancaster Grange and work with my colleague Robert ensuring everything in the building works as it should and Robert works hard to ensure the gardens looks presentable and fabulous as they always do. I joined Barchester in 2022 originally working for our sister home before taking the opportunity to transfer here shortly after.

I have worked in the construction industry for 40 years, specialising in the Healthcare and Education sectors. Working with the wonderful people we support here brings a wonderful aspect to my work and I enjoy chatting with people just as much as the physical parts of my job.

We are willing to do whatever it takes to ensure that your environment is as personalised and homely as it should be and I take great pride and comfort from seeing the impact decorating rooms with personal pictures and items has on the people we support and the happiness that follows.

Jade Mitchell

Jade Mitchell

Admin Assistant

I am Jade Mitchell, I joined Lancaster Grange in 2016 as a Health Care Assistant before becoming a Senior Health Care Assistant. In 2023 I was awarded Carer of the Year in the East Midlands Care Home Awards which was a very proud moment for me. I take great pride in my work and ensuring our residents have the very best person centred care and will always go above and beyond for everyone.

Due to my care background I can happily advise, help and assist with any issues that may arise in the home, I have recently taken the role of Admin Assistant and I am really enjoying meeting and greeting all of our new residents, family and friends although you will often find me darting around the home depending on the request at that time.

I have three teenage children which I am very proud of and love spending time with them, I also have two dogs that keep me busy when I am not working.
