Jade Thumwood is Managing Director at Visiting Angels West Leicestershire.
My passion for care started as a child in the school holidays helping my grandmother who dedicated her retirement from nursing to the British Red Cross and delivering meals on wheels to those that needed support at home. Then whilst at University when I worked part time at a residential care home until graduation.
We have an incredible team of caregivers, who have become family – they are at the heart of our business and everything we strive to do is to support them.
