It’s a big team effort at ExtraCare. There are three Housing Officers including myself. I love what we do. I love going around the Schemes and Villages and meeting the local staff. I think most of the time the local staff don’t realise what a good job they do. I think sometimes they need to be reminded of that.

I love what ExtraCare does and fully endorse its philosophy. Over the years I have heard so many life changing stories from our residents and feel privileged being part of a forward thinking charity. I have also been very lucky to have worked with such a great bunch of supportive people at Head Office.
