Bio Coming Soon!
I bring over 15 years of experience in the social care sector, having started my career as a support worker in 2009. Over the years, I have held various leadership roles, which have given me a deep understanding of both the challenges and rewards of delivering high-quality care.
I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with technology companies to develop assistive technologies, and most recently, I served as a Strategic Leader overseeing 130 services across residential, respite, domiciliary, and ISL provisions. My dedication to ensuring that care is personalised and tailored to each individual’s unique needs is central to my work, and I firmly believe that every voice matters and deserves to be heard.
Chief Executive Officer Gary Thompson is the Responsible Individual for Lynwood Avenue . To find out more, visit our Meet The Team page.
The people we support at Lynwood Avenue - Swanton Care, are involved in all planning of their care and are encouraged and supported to live an active and fulfilling life. Our positive behaviour support enables us to empower the people we support to explore new activities and create opportunities for themselves they may not have experienced previously.
Positive feedback from our recent CQC Report read that families were complimentary about our team at Lynnwood. They said: “The team at Lynnwood has my son’s best interests in all they do, they are brilliant." And "I love the fact they put my son first."
Every person we support at Lynwood enjoys a variety of activities on offer in a relaxed and warm environment. Community engagement is strongly encouraged.
