Meet The Manager
Richard Stevens is Personnel Manager at Alcester Home Care Agency Ltd.

Not only does he keep everything on track, but he also lends a helping hand to Liz - a true multitasking wizard!
Before joining our merry band, Richard was a specialist in care for individuals with acquired brain injuries. As Manager of s care home, he ran the show like a pro, ensuring his team of support workers helped individuals live independently. With his guidance, they created an environment where people thrived, providing high quality care with a side order of compassion.
Now, he's brought all that expertise to us, ensuring everyone has the tools to lead a safe, happy, and tea filled life. Honestly, we don't know how we managed without him.
