My journey began with a solid educational foundation, earning a Post Graduation in HRM (Level 7). Additionally, I hold multiple certifications in management.

With a diverse background spanning from team member to managerial positions in various industries, I bring a wealth of experience in leadership, team management, and customer service. My journey includes roles in HR, training, and operations, complemented by entrepreneurial endeavours in local businesses like post offices and petrol stations.

My extensive experience in customer service and my commitment to excellence have equipped me with the necessary skills to excel in the care business. I am a strong communicator, capable of building positive relationships both internally and externally. I possess a keen analytical mind, excellent decision-making abilities, and a high tolerance for pressure, all of which are crucial in providing top-notch care services.

I am dedicated to creating a supportive and productive environment where both customers and team members feel valued and motivated. With a “How can I help you?” attitude, I strive to go the extra mile for customers, ensuring their needs are met with professionalism and empathy. My expertise in leadership, team management, and customer service makes me well-suited to deliver exceptional care and support in the healthcare industry.

I am the Care Manager at Caremark Preston, bringing with me a wealth of experience and passion for supporting others. With a career in health and social care that began in the 1990s, I started out as a care assistant and progressed to senior roles, including Deputy Manager of a residential home.

My journey also includes a remarkable 16-year chapter with Lancashire Constabulary, working first as a paralegal and later as a Volunteer Officer, leading on recruitment, training, and support for volunteers who were matched with vulnerable individuals, in the Blackpool, Wyre and Fylde areas. This role, which began just six weeks before the COVID-19 pandemic, deeply reinforced my commitment to helping those in need.

After further experience in a local sight loss charity, raising funds and planning events, I returned to health and social care as a Care Coordinator, where my passion and dedication have now led me into the role of Care Manager. I am proud to be able to lead a team that delivers compassionate, person-centred care across the Preston community.

Hi, I’m Steph, I’m a proud mum of 3 amazing and beautiful children, Alyssia, Ashleyne and Shae-Lucas. They are my absolute world :) I enjoy spending time with my family, partner and friends and the odd night out, but I’m getting old now, and it usually takes me too long to recover. I’ve only just been on a holiday abroad and can’t believe I’ve missed out on it all these years! I love to help people. And love being around people who make me belly laugh.

My name is Tahira Anwar. I always dreamed of working in a medical or care?related field, but after getting married and raising my children, I wasn’t able to complete my education. What began as a part?time beauty therapist role eventually led me into full?time caring, and that experience helped me realise where my true passion has always been.

I am now proud to be working as a compassionate Care Assistant with Caremark Preston. I am genuinely grateful to the team for believing in me, welcoming me without previous formal experience, and investing in my training and development. I am loving this role — supporting our elderly clients, making a positive difference in their daily lives, and going home each day with a sense of purpose and satisfaction.
