Hi there, I'm Kelly. My role at Lindum House ensures all of our residents always have lots of fun activities to look forward too.

I grew up down south, my parents worked in news trade & I've lived in many places! I've lived in hull for 20 years now, worked in health and social care for around 15 years, I started on care, worked through domestic, kitchen assistant and found my calling with activities!

I'm a super social person, enjoy being busy and sing in my spare time. I am part of a small singing charity group 'guise & gals'. I've been singing karaoke since I was 18 but never had the confidence to take it any further. I do, however, love putting on a show for our residents! 

I'm a strong believer in 'treat people how you wish to be treated' everyone is different and it's important to focus on each individuals wants and needs, to encourage and nurture life, you only live once!

I'm full of energy, providing there is music... it's good for my soul!

Our residents smiles are my reward, it makes me so happy to see them enjoying them selves.

Hi, I'm Joel. I have worked in elderly care since 2015, I have worked in Guildford, Reading, Manchester and now Lindum House. Before working in elderly care I worked in brain injury, mental health and as a behaviour expert with disabled children with challenging behaviours. I have previously suffered from a brain tumour myself and had to spend a year in hospital so I can empathise with our residents and understand how hard it is, sometimes, to need and receive care.
