"We may be a smaller care home but the wider company has been so supportive of me throughout my apprenticeship. even in my personal life and I really appreciate that".  

Park House Registered Manager Sara Pearce is incredibly proud of Tamzin's achievement.

Sara describes Tamzin as a bright personality who always comes to work with a smile on her face and always gives 100% and has built strong bonds with residents in the home. 

She said:

"Tamzin is an incredibly deserving winner and I'm so proud to have her as part of our team".
