Rachel McKinney
Hi, my name is Rachel and I am the General Manager here at Marple Dale Care Centre. Welcome to our website!
I have worked at Marple Dale for many years in a number of different roles. I started as a Nurse, then became a Head of Unit in 2011. I then went on to become Deputy Manager, and I am now the General Manager.
Marple Dale is my second home and I love the environment that we have created. I thrive on making a difference for the residents we support by improving their quality of life.
I am very passionate about my role and I will always give my full support and understanding to my team, residents and their loved ones.
Dawn Dunn
I have been working in the care home sector since 2001. I was an administrator at another Barchester home – Arbour Court – for 2 years, when the home was part of Westminster Healthcare. I then came to Marple Dale as a Senior Administrator before it was owned by Barchester.
Although it is a very busy environment, I do enjoy the challenge of the role. I am here to support the staff and families, mainly in the financial running of the home, and I will always strive to work as hard as I can.
I work very closely with the General Manager and assist wherever I can.
Being part of the Marple Dale family is very rewarding, and I feel lucky to be working in such a beautiful setting.

Hello, my name is Clare Burke, and I'm the Activities Coordinator here at Marple Dale. I have been doing this role since April 2018 and I absolutely love it.
Before I started as the Activities Coordinator, I worked as a Carer here and, previous to that, I worked in a nursery as a Nurse.
I love being creative and getting everyone involved in our activities. I have built a good relationship with the residents here and know them very well.
