I joined Amitola Communities in December 2013 as the Manager of Christmas Lodge until I moved over to manage the Dexters on a permanent basis with a long-standing staff team, all of whom are committed to the well-being of those individuals we support.  

Over the years on there have been a lot of changes, but the ethos of the organisation and its directors has not changed and remains committed not only to the individuals we support but the staff team as a whole.  

The ethos of Amitola Communities is driven by the commitment of its directors to the individuals in our care, with a focus to help people strive towards being as independent as possible on a recovery focused pathway. This is what makes my role within the organisation very rewarding, and Amitola Communities great organisation to work for. 

My previous employment positions include working as a qualified Social Worker in a secure hospital, working as a Registered Manager in a home for challenging behaviour and autism, and Manager at a day service for young people with ASD.
