I joined Jenny’s as our Registered Manager in September 2018, having previously gained a wealth of experience working as a qualified social worker, a supported living manager and a residential manager for Essex County Council for 24 years.

Christine Castell
Director
After working at Shorefields School as a volunteer for over 10 years I decided to support the team at Jenny’s. I have a son with a learning difficulty and this places me in a good position to see the provision of care from both sides of the fence. At Jenny’s I believe we strive to deliver excellent care. I am an active member of the WI and participate in the Drama Group and the Darts Team. I enjoy gardening and family holidays especially in the Lake District.
