LA23 3ET 285559 I am Friendly, Empathetic and a Good Listener. A Lancashire lad by birth, with my Parents buying the Squires House in Pilling back in 1963 and creating one of the original Country House Hotels. After attending Blackpool Catering College, joined Trust Houses Forte as a Management trainee at Leeds / Bradford Post House, then went up the management ladder to the Swan Grasmere, Belsfield Windermere, and Waterhead Ambleside. After spending five years at Prince of Wales & Royal Clifton Hotels in Southport, I went on for 13 years as the Tenant of the Albert, Bowness-on-Windermere My son Richard is now Director – Estates, of the Birtenshaw Group, who provides a creative and dynamic range of Care and Education services for children and young adults with Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND). Normally, based in Bolton, but has responsibilities for the newly built Merseyside site. I have lived in Bowness-on-Windermere, in the central English Lake District for over 50 years. Some may call it paradise, but with over a million visitors each year on the promenade, some 200 yards from home, it has its moments. 8.00pm is so different to High Noon! To relax, besides walking Sky, a Therapy dog, in this amazing area, in the woods just over a mile away, she loves it, as it a world away from the chaos of the village. I have a Lowrey Grand Marquee organ, which is top of the range machine. More whistles, buttons and sounds than you can play. Very rewarding. My audience usually puts her head between her paws and goes to sleep, it is so relaxing for us both. Having retired from an active hospitality role, I work with Shared Lives, part of the Health and Social Care umbrella of Westmorland & Furness Council. My training is bang up to date, with specialised training in Autism and Dementia. In November 2019, a young autistic gentleman moved in with me, and together we have built the foundations of as strong future for him, as he now started his 2nd year at the University of Cumbria in Carlisle. I also have day respite “clients”, one of whom had Dementia, and it was suggested by his wife, (a judge at Crufts) that I should take Sky’s journey further. We applied to Therapy Dogs Nationwide (TDN) in August 2023, and the rest as they say is history. Sky is a ten-year-old lady Springer Spaniel, who I rescued in November 2022, and loves the attention she gets whenever we are out. My aunt lived in a nursing home until her death earlier this year, and on our visits, she was adored by all the resident’s. I love to explore the “hidden” parts of the English Lake District, but often venture further afield into the Yorkshire Dales, Scottish Borders and the Fylde Coast, with a full, clean driving licence. Please get in touch, if you think I could help you.

I work with a person-centred approach and I am passionate and successful in helping clients to lead their best life. Helping clients to focus on what they can do and not what they can't do is the core of my approach. I have a diverse skillset which includes running my own life coaching company, advocacy, mentoring, dementia advisor, community care, housekeeping/cooking, companionship, good planning and organisational skills as well as being a qualified holistic therapist. Diploma in Mindful Nutrition and currently studying Mindful Mental Health. I believe in a compassionate and empathic approach and in particular helping people to live independently and safely within their own homes whilst maintaining dignity, self respect and longevity. If as a family, you live far away and you need someone to oversee the daily living of your loved ones, hiring a personal assistant can give you the peace of mind and confidence that they are well and being looked after. If any issues arise, they/you have someone to help navigate the relevant pathways. I have a lifetime of experience working with people from a diverse range of backgrounds with many different needs and making sure that clients needs are met spiritually mentally and physically are at the core of my approach. I am trustworthy, reliable, punctual and good company and can provide many references to substantiate this. I love a game of scrabble, reading, listening to music, meditation, conversation, coffee, cooking, photography, travel. I am well travelled and have a few tales to tell. I am told that I am a great conversationalist but I also like quiet time and am happy in my own company as well as being sociable. Many thanks for your interest. I look forward to discussing your requirements. Points to note: My sleepover night rate of £100 is from 10pm to 8.00am the next morning. Anything outside of these hours is charged at my normal hourly rate. Mileage incurred during a shift will be invoiced for separately. As a qualified Personal Development and Motivation Coach any sessions that involve coaching will incur a higher rate to be discussed.
