I started working here on a 3 month placement and here I am 12 years later. I’ve seen a lot of changes, I knew what challenges we were facing and I wanted to stay to see them through.
PS I love my job!

We’ve also seen key indicators change. Staff turnover is falling, sickness is down.
- 18% Staff Turnover – 23% last year
- 5% Absence Rate – 6.5% last year
And we are investing in the team with 275 colleague training and development sessions through the year. One particular investment saw 13 support workers at St Marks House complete the Care Certificate course.
In our office we tend to be light hearted to keep us sane as some of the stories can be quite harrowing. We see and hear some awful things. When we do we always take the staff outside for a de-briefing, it gives us the space to offload our own feelings
