What does your role involve?
I’m responsible for the day-to-day running of our four extra care schemes. No two days are ever the same, but the best part is seeing the difference moving to Lace makes — helping people regain independence and feel part of a thriving community.
What first attracted you to Lace — and what keeps you here?
I came from community care because I wanted to support people in a more independent-living environment. I’ve stayed because Lace offers real career development, encouragement and transparency. Everyone feels valued and connected.
What do you enjoy most?
The fast pace and variety — and seeing residents grow in confidence and wellbeing once they settle into a safe, supportive place.
How does your work make a difference?
Many residents arrive after experiencing isolation. Helping them build friendships, regain independence and feel part of a resident-led community is genuinely life-changing.
Describe working at Lace in three words:
Achievement. Satisfying. Humbling.
What would you say to someone thinking of joining?
If you’re passionate about making a positive difference, Lace is an inspiring place to work. You’ll be supported, heard and able to make a real impact.
