I began working in Social Care sector since January 1996, this was soon after I finished my degree in BSc Behavioural sciences. I commenced employment as a support worker with a not-for-profit organisation working with adults with learning disabilities. This was during the time when Ely hospital in South Wales was in the process transitioning people from hospital to resettle in the community into supported living accommodation.
I continued my employment with the organisation, developing in my career with various roles across the organisation, working with different models of support including supported living, respite, community support and residential manager roles.
I have worked in senior management roles for the last 15 years mainly in operations and quality assurance. I have been a Registered Manager since 2014 with two providers in the last 27 years.
I am a trainer and been the organisational lead for person centred practise, ensuring that people supported live lives to their full potential and are encouraged to have greater choice and control. I feel passionate that people are at the forefront of their own support provision ensuring that the quality-of-service provision is exceptional.
I have recently joined Swanton Care as the Regional Director for South East Wales in August 2023 and look forward to working within this organisation to continue my career development supporting people and staff to reach their goals and aspirations.
Divisional Director Kate Townsley is the Responsible Individual for Maes Y Bryn. To find out more, visit our Meet The Team page.
The people we support at Maes Y Bryn are encouraged and supported to live an active and fulfilled life. Our relationship-centred care enables us to empower the people we support to explore new activities and create opportunities for themselves they may not have experienced previously.
Pleasing feedback from our recent CQC Report read:“The interaction between the manager, staff, and service users was excellent. It is evident that the service users are happy to approach the manager at any time to talk to her”
