Meet the Evergreen Care UK Team

We believe there is a better way to treat older people.

Darren

Chief Operations Officer

Evergreen continues to help the vulnerable in your community by providing services that otherwise wouldn’t be there. We are committed to the communities we serve, closely abiding in the love we share for one another as neighbours.

Cathy

Office Manager

I have always worked in the caring field either hands on or within an office setting. I started my time with Evergreen as a befriender, I had time to give and love listening to older people; there is so much we can learn from them.

Mick

Support Services Officer

My training for Evergreen has been 52 years of life experiences. Good, bad and a few ugly. The up’s & down’s, swings & roundabouts are what we all have in common as people, and its people that Evergreen are all about.

Jacqueline

Events Manager

I felt like part of the Evergreen Family from day one. I have been working within the Elderberries Vintage Café’s side of the charity. My role is to help expand and strengthen their themed café into the local boroughs. I am finding the role really exciting.

Julia

Friendship Co-ordinator

This is one of the best jobs that I have ever had. Matching up a very lonely and isolated client with one of our wonderful volunteers makes me truly happy. We are changing the lives of these clients in our local community and this isamazing!

Caroline

Friendship Co-ordinator

It has been a real privilege to share our vision within the local community… Forming partnerships and seeing the friendships blossom is such a blessing and we have big plans for the future.

I first came to Evergreen as a home support worker. I enjoyed visiting my clients, in their own homes, giving them practical support and helping them to enjoy living as independently as possible.

Wendy

Friendship Co-ordinator

It is a privilege to have a job which enables me to meet a range of amazing and interesting people, where I get to see loving and deep friendships forming between our clients and their befrienders and knowing that in some small way we have helped to reduce the isolation that many people in our local community experience.

Tina

Events Co-ordinator

As the Events Co-ordinator I arrange activities and events that help to build new friendships and bring joy to our Elderberries guests. Working with an amazing team and wonderful volunteers I feel I can make a positive impact every day. It is an honour to work for such an amazing charity and to see the difference they make to the elderly community.
