Lorraine has worked at Woodside Care Village since before it opened in 2019 and at WCS since 2005.

Lorraine says she’s a carer at heart and she recognises that it takes a special person to work at Woodside Care Village. Her mission is to grow and nurture carers, and treat them with kindness to create a special community where people want to come and live, in a care home that offers hope, and our staff want to stay.

Maxine has been part of the management team at Woodside Care Village since it opened in 2019 and at WCS Care since 2014, working in the previous Woodside care home and at Castle Brook in Kenilworth.

Maxine's always enjoyed learning and gaining new knowledge. She brings this passion to work where she wants to create the same enthusiasm for learning, so people can reach their fullest potential. As a member of the team who has worked both days and nights, Maxine is dedicated to ensuring all team members have the same opportunities to develop in their careers.

Mathew enjoys bringing about positive change for the deaf residents he supports, using his communication skills to facilitate understanding and create an environment where everyone can thrive and connect.

Meg is one of our concierges, so you're likely to speak to her on the phone or meet her when you visit the home.

Having benefited from support herself as she grew up, and with family encouragement, Meg originally trained to work with children. However, she loved spending time with her grandparents, listening to their stories, and knowing that her skills, and personal experience, would transfer to adult care, she made the move to WCS in 2019.

Joining originally as a carer, Meg brings these skills to her current role of Concierge, supporting residents and visitors.

Here are just a few of the faces that make up our team at Woodside Care Village.

No matter what their role is, every member of our team is a carer at heart and contributes to the day-to-day experience of our residents. We know we’re only as good as our last act of care, so we recruit team members who embody our values whilst also simply being themselves, bringing all of their different personalities, interests and passions to work to create a diverse team of carers.
