Meet our Registered Manager

Hi, I’m Thom, the Registered Manager of Garden House.

I joined Footsteps to Futures in early 2019 and have periodically worked at Holly Lodge alongside its sister homes. After successfully supporting a sister home as Deputy Manager, I returned to Holly Lodge as Manager in 2021.

My experience of assisting management teams in developing the homes ethos as well as inducting and supporting new staff members is an aspect of the role I really enjoy. My aim is to run a home that meets the needs of all children that reside with us, but also promote their rights, independence, and differences. To ensure every day brings new experiences, laughter and the opportunity to learn and grow.

Previous to being a RM I worked with young adults in a semi secure setting as well as being a foster carer. These experiences gave me the knowledge, skills and understanding of the challenges that come hand in hand with supporting vulnerable children and the passion to make a positive difference in their lives.
