Hi, my name is Bekky, and I am the General Manager here at The Meadowbeck. Welcome to our website!

Thank you for taking the time to look further into what Meadowbeck has to offer to you or your loved one. Here is an opportunity to look at some of our staff team in the home, who all play a vital role in day-to-day life.

I am responsible for running this beautiful, purpose-built home and my passion is to provide an outstanding service for those that we support in a warm and pleasant environment. We look forward to you visiting us.

I have worked for Barchester for 4 years and was previously the Home Administrator for almost 2 years before being appointed to the role of General Manager in March 2020.

Tina Holmes

Activities Coordinator

Hi, I’m Tina, and I am the Activities Coordinator here at Meadowbeck.

I began working at the home as a Care Assistant in 1999. In 2014, I changed my role to Social Support Worker, which I enjoyed, as it involved supporting residents at Meadowbeck in their daily lifestyles.

I then became the Activities Coordinator in May 2017. I love working with the elderly and getting to know them and their families, in addition to supporting them in their active lifestyles to make their time at Meadowbeck as enjoyable as possible.

Paul Ravenhill

My job is to maintain the home and gardens at Meadowbeck.

I enjoy working around the home and gardens.
