Sarah Billingsley
Hi, my name is Sarah and I am the General Manager here at Edgbaston Beaumont. Welcome to our website!
I joined the Edgbaston team in October 2021. I have worked in the care industry for all of my career, I am honoured and delighted to have been given the opportunity to become General Manager for Edgbaston Beaumont. I am so passionate about ensuring quality care and lifestyle for our residents every day. I am proud to have such a fantastic team on board to support me.

Ethel Karsey
Ethel worked for Exemplar for 5 years and then as a Nurse at The Firs Nursing Home. Ethel joined Barchester in 2022 as The Firs closed down.

Tricia Samuels
I rejoined Barchester in March 2023, having previously worked here 1998-2006 in the same position. When I heard of the opportunity to come back to Barchester I jumped at it, as I did really enjoy my time here with the residents and staff. I enjoy supporting the General Manager to keep the day-to-day administration of the home running.
I have worked in administration my entire career, including starting at Cadbury’s on a youth training scheme and working for a brain injury charity for 15 years. In my spare time I love to spend time with my family, play netball a few times a week, and football when my body allows!!
Celia Palmer
I’m Celia and I’m the Activity coordinator here at Edgbaston Beaumont. I previously worked as an activity coordinator in a hostel and am enjoying the shift into the residential setting. I have an arts background so enjoy painting and drawing in my spare time, which hopefully I can share my love for with the residents here. I also enjoy reading, travel, live music and looking after my cats! And copious amounts of tea.
