Meet The Manager
Ryan Anderson is Business Development Manager at MyLife Homecare (Kent).
Established in 2013, We have recently relocated to a brand new office in a picturesque location of Canterbury City Centre. We are a five minute walk from town and Canterbury West Station. As a company, we decided our new adventure will enable us to be more involved within our surrounding community. If you are looking for a high standard of care package for yourself or a loved one, or are considering a change in career to give back to community, come in a say 'Hi!' we would love to meet you, chat with you and help you as much as we can.
