Rachel – Millgate House Manager
Hello, I’m Rachel, the Registered Service Manager and Respite Manager here at Millgate House.
I have worked in social care for over 20 years, beginning my career as a bank Support Worker before progressing into management roles with Macintyre Charity and later Sanctuary Supported Living.
I then moved into senior leadership positions as a Locality Area Manager with Ivolve Care and Support, followed by United Response, before being given the privilege of leading Millgate House’s Residential and Respite services.
I am deeply passionate about the work I do and consistently strive for excellence. I believe in empowering people to be actively involved in their own life decisions and supporting them to shape a good quality of life in a way that is meaningful to them.
Our focus is always on safety, happiness and positive outcomes.
My aim is to ensure that every person has a positive experience and enjoys their time at Millgate House.
