Celebrating 25 years’ service
The 8th of August 2019 marked the 25th year that our Team Manager, Carol Clemenson has worked for Augusta Care and our sister company Hereward Care Services.
To celebrate, Carol and the rest of the head office and management staff teams went to Peterborough Greyhounds at the weekend. Before our delicious food was served Carol was presented with some gifts and it wasn’t long before the races started. We had quite a few winners on the night and Carol even got to present the trophy to the winning dog and her handler on race 8.
I’m sure all of Carol’s colleagues will join in thanking her for her continued service and commitment to the company and the people we support. Congratulations on 25 years’ service, it’s certainly an achievement.
Cleaning up and serving dinner
The ladies at 2A enjoyed a lovely dinner and then everyone pitched in to do the washing up.
Love the work you do
I was invited to speak at the University Centre West Anglia’s Annual Humanities Conference on 28th June 2019. I spoke about returning to education and the career I now have as a result of that. I spoke to people who were considering returning to education and hope I encouraged them to take the step that I have.
Whilst preparing for the event, I reflected on my job role now and it reinforced just why I love what I do now. It was great to go back to where it all began for me, and to see two of my old tutors and one of my fellow students.
