Meet the Latimer Court Care Home Team

Hi, my name is Manu and I joined Latimer Court in 2024. 

I started my nursing career in the UK in 2013 as a supervised practise nurse. During my career, I have gained great experience in all areas and worked up my way from a nurse to Clinical Services Manager and then Deputy Manager. 

Further to that, I have worked for two years as a professional development nurse in NHS hospitals, where I have been training overseas nurses to achieve their competency to be UK registered nurses. 

I have always enjoyed and embraced the challenges in my career and am so happy to be the Deputy Manager of Latimer court. I look forward to bringing smiles to the people I work for and work with….

Hi, my name is Becky, I am the Home Administrator. I joined the Latimer team in January 2024. Before working at Latimer Court, I worked for over 9 years in front line child protection, safeguarding babies and young children as well as offering support and guidance to families. In my spare time outside of work, I enjoy going to the gym, reading and holidaying in the sun!

Within my role I support Donna and the wider team, carrying out various administrative tasks including general enquiries, residents contracts and paperwork, staffing rotas and recruitment.

Alongside Danni, I am often the first point of contact for families looking for the right home for their loved one. I understand that this can be a difficult and overwhelming time for some and want to offer reassurance that we are here to answer any questions you may have and support you in any way we can.

My door is always open so please pop in and say hello if you are passing.

Hi my name is Cheryl and I am the Activity Lead and I have worked at Latimer Court since 2024.

I organise outings and events which the residents enjoy best and I also involve the community to take part.

Outside work, I have a son and I enjoy family time, particularly outings! I have a keen interest in horses and I previously owned one and enjoyed show jumping, nowadays I prefer watching and keeping my feet firmly on the ground!.
