With a professional background that spans healthcare, aviation, and specialized training, I bring a wealth of experience to the field of dementia care. As a former Registered Nurse with expertise in Emergency and Children’s Medical care, I transitioned to a 20-year career in aviation, serving as a Cabin Director and Base Cabin Crew Manager. In these roles, I led recruitment, training, retention, and leadership initiatives for cabin crew teams across the UK.<br /> <br /> For the past 16 years, I have been dedicated to the care sector, progressing from Care Professional to Care Manager, and later assuming roles such as Specialist Training Manager. Currently, as a Learning and Development Partner at Home Instead’s National Office, I develop and review training programs, collaborate with external organizations like the Alzheimer’s Society, and manage various impactful projects.<br /> <br /> My passion for dementia care has guided much of my work, from engaging with advanced dementia support initiatives, such as those offered by the End of Life Partnership, to staying informed through events like the annual Dementia Summit. These efforts reflect my deep commitment to enhancing the care and quality of life for individuals living with dementia
