Members of the Executive Team are encouraged to draw upon the specific expertise of Trustees when needed.

We encourage Trustees to visit homes across the group throughout the year, to meet Home Managers, staff, residents, and relatives, and to learn more about the experience of living or working in one of our homes and how the homes operate, as well as seeing property improvement work and developments.
