Mrs Charlotte Morley

Activities coordinator

I have always had a passion for healthcare and working with others. I have a very compassionate and caring nature and nothing pleases me more than to know I have made a difference to the lives of others.

I think it is such an important part of care to work in activities I enjoy encouraging the residents to fulfil their wishes and continue to engage in activities they may have enjoyed whilst living at home. I am really pleased to be a part of the team here at White Lodge.

Mrs Matilda Mwakatuma

Unit Lead Memory Lane

I have worked with Barchester for ten years, but have only been at White Lodge since April 2016, where I was promoted to the Unit Lead for Memory Lane. I find it very rewarding working in Memory Lane with people who have different types of dementia and supporting their families. I feel very honoured to be part of a supportive team, as we all know that it can be very stressful at times but also very rewarding. I do encourage my team to be as supportive and understanding as possible towards the resident's families due to the fact there are many emotional factors which play a massive part of this element.
