At Godfrey Care, we value the personal and professional development of our colleagues and support them to achieve their goals. This commitment not only empowers our teams but directly enhances the quality of care we provide, as advanced skills and specialist knowledge translate into better outcomes for the people we support.

This month, we’re delighted to celebrate two fantastic achievements from our team.

Charlotte Notman has been awarded her postgraduate MSc qualification in the Applications of Clinical Psychology at Birmingham Newham University, achieving a Distinction. This further strengthens her role as our Specialist Psychological Practitioner, applying psychological therapeutic approaches with the people we support and providing Godfrey Care with a mental health specialism within our multidisciplinary team.

Heather Wilkinson, one of our Regional Managers, also marked a key milestone in her career with a Distinction in her Level 5 Leader in Adult Care qualification. This is one of the highest standards of professional development in the sector, recognising her expertise, leadership, and commitment to delivering outstanding care across our services.

Charlotte and Heather’s achievements reflect their hard work, dedication and ambition. As complex care providers, it’s vital that we nurture talent, support continual learning, and champion colleague development at every level.

Congratulations to Charlotte and Heather!

Godfrey Care love to organise trips away to discover new places and experiences, but we also appreciate the merits of a good night in. Inclusive events held at home are an equally important part of life at our services.

Field House in Burton-on-Trent recently hosted an occasion which looks set to become a regular favourite in their social calendar: eyes were down and spirits were up for their inaugural bingo session!

The people we support embraced the fun and excitement of Field House’s Bingo Bash as the friendly competition and cheeky banter grew with each round. The Field House support team did their best to swot up on bingo terminology, from legs eleven to clickety click, as they called each number for the eager audience.

Olivia Nixon, Service Manager at Field House, said:

“Bingo was a perfect game to bring everyone together in a fun, relaxed atmosphere. It gave everyone the opportunity to participate in a social event, especially those who generally prefer staying in to going out. It was lovely to see people connecting and cheering each other on. We’ve had really positive feedback, and we’re already planning the next session!”

Well done to the Field House support team for coming up with an instant hit – if the first event is anything to go by, Field House will always be a full house for Bingo night!

We’re absolutely delighted to share that Godfrey Care has won the Excellence in Supported Living Award at last night’s LaingBuisson Awards!

This recognition means a great deal because it celebrates what truly defines Godfrey Care: person-centred, co-produced support that blends therapeutic design with real system-wide impact, from smoother hospital discharges to meaningful job creation and leadership across adult social care. We were also proud to be nominated in the Excellence in Specialist Care category.

A huge thank you to our incredible colleagues across our services and at head office. Your dedication, compassion, and teamwork make achievements like this possible.

And thank you to the organisers for a fantastic event at the Park Plaza Westminster Bridge — a brilliant celebration of the very best in health and social care.

At Godfrey Care, we’re proudly building futures together, and this award is a testament to the success that we’re having in that mission.

Team Members of the Month – Celebrating Our Core Values at Godfrey Care!

At Godfrey Care, our values of being Inclusive, Innovative, and Resilient are at the heart of everything we do. Last month, we were proud to recognise three outstanding team members who truly embody these principles, based on the nominations of their colleagues. Each team member received recognition cards and a One4all gift voucher.

💡 Innovative – Nick Davies, Maintenance Regional
Nick might work behind the scenes, but his impact shines through every home he helps improve. He takes the time to get to know the people we support, ensuring their spaces feel truly personal. When Nick discovered that CN at Field House shared his love for football, he brought back a Liverpool shirt from his holiday in Turkey, a thoughtful gesture that made CN’s day. Nick’s creativity and care remind us that innovation comes in many forms at Godfrey Care, but ultimately it’s about finding meaningful ways to make a difference.

🤝 Inclusive – Cordelia Rowley, Support Worker, Pottery House
Cordelia exemplifies inclusivity through her family-centred approach. By collaborating closely with families, listening with empathy, and tailoring support to individual needs, she ensures each person receives care and support that promotes independence, dignity, and well-being.

💪 Resilient – Gracia Verwey, Support Worker, The Meadows
Gracia’s resilience and compassion make her a true cornerstone of our team. Always ready to help, she goes above and beyond for her colleagues and the people we support. With her positive, professional attitude, Gracia fosters a culture of support, open communication, and well-being, embodying the spirit of Godfrey Care at its best.

Nick, Cordelia and Gracia typify the personal and professional attributes that are fundamental to our success in building futures together. We are proud and grateful to have you on our team!

LC, who lives at our Ash Tree House service in Burton-on-Trent, loves a day out exploring new sights and sounds. She’s also a big fan of the seaside, so the service team came up with an inspired choice of outing to mark her 20th birthday: a trip to Blackpool!

As LC and the support team headed north for a coastal adventure, they were blessed with glorious autumnal sunshine throughout the day. LC took in many of the town’s most famous attractions, including fairground rides at the pleasure beach and a relaxing walk down the promenade. She also found time to pet some friendly donkeys!

When LC returned to Ash Tree House, her birthday celebrations were capped with a lively party held at the service.

Well done to the Ash Tree House for organising a fantastic occasion – and happy birthday, LC!

At Godfrey Care, we believe it’s vital to deepen our understanding of how the people we support interact with their environment and navigate life’s challenges. Appreciating their sensory needs is a fundamental part of that approach.

It’s a principle which our service team have recently put into practice at The Meadows, our new service in Beeston, where we recently welcomed a new arrival who has moved into a self-contained apartment with bespoke features and specialist support to accommodate his visual impairment.

C engages deeply through sounds and smells. With that in mind, the team at The Meadows created a sensory garden with natural aromas for C to enjoy. Team Leader Lynsey reached out to local garden centres, who kindly donated a range of scented plants.

The team has also undertaken specialist visual impairment training. This included practising navigation around the home blindfolded to better understand C’s experience, enabling them to support C much more effectively.

They have also worked closely with C to help him establish healthy sleep habits. Prior to moving in, a disrupted sleep routine was affecting C’s college attendance but he has responded very positively to the team’s support and its energising effect has proved to be hugely beneficial to his daytime activities. He is now attending college regularly and thriving in his new environment!

It was wonderful to hear that C’s family and case worker are delighted with his progress since moving to The Meadows. We’re incredibly proud of how the service team has supported C – their empathetic approach has given him a greater sense of inclusion and their innovation has made him feel instantly at home in his new environment.

By working hand in hand with C, his family, and one another, the team at The Meadows truly brings our mission to life – Building Futures Together.

Today, we pause to honour the courage and sacrifice of those who served. Lest we forget.

We’re delighted to share more news and pictures from the Halloween celebrations that took place over the weekend at Godfrey Care Services.

Field House in Burton-on-Trent hosted a pumpkin party which turned out to be a smashing success. The service team worked tirelessly in the days leading up to the event, preparing delicious themed treats, planning party games, and decorating every corner to create a magical atmosphere. The home was transformed into a pumpkin-themed wonderland, complete with glowing jack-o’-lanterns, cobwebs, and all things spooky.

Ghoulish guests arrived from our nearby Ash Tree House, Station House, and Ashby House services. The people we support, their families, and the service teams came together to enjoy Halloween target games and even found time to show some devilish moves in a demonic dance-off!

At Ash Tree House, JB got into the festive spirit with a visit to Garden King Garden Centre for their Halloween Spooktacular. It was the latest in a growing list of community activities JB has embraced, including shopping trips, lunches out, an energetic visit to Inflatable World, and a series of swimming sessions. His confidence in the pool has been increasing each time and he’s having plenty of fun, especially when splashing members of the service team - JB has never been one to confine his mischief to Halloween!"
