Clovecare Ltd

I worked closely with Merton Social Services and hospital discharge teams for over 20 years, supporting people as they returned home from hospital during their six-week reablement period. While I found this work incredibly rewarding, I often wondered how people managed in the months and years that followed once rehabilitation ended.

This inspired me to establish Clovecare —a natural follow-on service for individuals needing ongoing support after hospital discharge or reablement. Since 2015, we have supported over 200 people to remain safely and comfortably in their own homes. I have loved every day of this journey and remain passionate about helping people in Sutton and Merton maintain their independence and quality of life at home.

Anna has worked in domiciliary care for over 40 years and has been a valued member of our team since the very start. Originally from Ireland, she is known for her caring nature and strong family values. She builds meaningful relationships and consistently goes above and beyond to support those in her care.

Karry has been a valued member of the team since 2015. Kerry also joined at the very start. When Wendy needed a strong, reliable team, she wanted to start this journey. She had previously worked with Wendy & Anna for another council for many years and has since devoted herself to her role as a Senior Carer. With a large family of her own, she is extremely family-oriented, and this is reflected in the compassionate, person-centred care she provides.

Pippa has worked with us since 2017 and has been a dependable member of the team. She approaches challenges head-first, always leading with logic and empathy. She too has many ways of working with her clients, from singing and dancing, to those that like simple and straight instructions. She has worked particularly closely with clients receiving end-of-life support, those recovering from stroke, and individuals living with Parkinson’s disease, providing thoughtful and compassionate care throughout.

Maria has worked with us since 2017 and brings a truly quirky and engaging personality to her role. This allows her to work exceptionally well with all clients, particularly those living with dementia and Alzheimer’s. Maria also devotes herself to supporting those who may be at the end stages of their life, ensuring that they are comfortable. She has a natural ability to connect with people, helping them feel comfortable and relaxed, and is highly adaptable in any situation. She shows genuine care and compassion to everyone she supports.

Navina has an extremely calm and reassuring approach with her clients. Those who know her appreciate her ability to share a laugh while building strong, trusting relationships. She is exceptionally compassionate and patient, and when supporting individuals in the final stages of their lives, families often remark on how grateful they are that Navina was there for their loved one.

Sue joined us in 2017 and, after a few years with the team, decided to explore a new opportunity. During this time, she worked in a local care home before realising that home care was where her passion truly lies. Many clients recognise Sue from her years working at the Co-op in Rosehill, where she built strong relationships within the local community. This familiar presence helps clients feel comfortable and reassured when she visits their homes. She is kind, caring, and resilient, and has worked exceptionally well with clients who have a wide range of health conditions and care needs.
