Meet The Manager
Christina Sell is Managing Director at Arbour Companions and Care (Live in).
Christina Sell has worked in Health and Social Care for all of her career.
She is passionate about promoting the rights of older people. Christina is proud to say that she is a Nightingale Nurse, trained at St Thomas Hospital. After a few years in South America she returned to the UK to become a Health Visitor – unusually for older people as well as babies. During that time, she broadcast on two local radio stations on how to care for a baby!
Christina fell into a management job – managing Health Visitors and District Nurses in various locations around Surrey and North Hampshire and then went into the planning (i.e. commissioning) side of services. Now, Christina is very happy running her small, specialist live-in care business. Christina has a great team behind her who are as passionate about providing specialist live in care as she is.
At Arbour Companions & Care we believe that the comfort of home is irreplaceable.
We are a family-owned company, specialising in bespoke 24-hour live-in care at home. Our Managing Director is Christina Sell and our Finance Director is Robert Sell.
