Agincare Newcastle-Under-Lyme (Home Care & Live-in Care)

Tanya became Registered Manager of the Newcastle-under-Lyme branch in August 2022. Tanya joined the branch in September 2020 as Administration Coordinator, then progressed to Interim Manager in February 2022 and has been working in care for a total of 5 years.

Tanya has worked in various roles throughout her career and began working in care during lockdown, where she worked as a support worker for adults with learning difficulties. An interest in working in care was sparked with her father, who had dementia, lived with her for 5 years along with the support of care workers and therefore had first-hand experience of domiciliary care.

Tanya has recently completed and become a Mental Health First Aider, studying with MHFA England and is currently studying an Apprenticeship Level 5 Diploma in Leadership and Management in Adult Care.

Outside of work, Tanya loves to go to the theatre, go out for meals, visit the cinema and an occasional visit to the gym! Tanya lives in a very close-knit village and originally moved to run the local pub and fell in love with the place and people so decided to set up a home in Silverdale.
