Meet The Team

Our Belief is that your future matters

Byron Nadgie

Home Manager

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself, my name is Byron Nadgie and I am the manager at Oaklands House. I joined the Future Care Group because I passionately believe in their core values: Care, Comfort, Compassion and Credibility, which should always be at the centre of the way we work.
I started at Oaklands House a few weeks ago, I must say I was very pleased with the warm welcome I received from the relatives and the staff team, I have a wealth of knowledge and experience working within the care sector, having managed Nursing/Dementia and Residential homes, led management teams as a Regional Manager, finally becoming Head of Quality for the priory group south west and wales, before moving to HC-0ne as a Quality Improvement Lead.
Starting out from the ground upwards, I first became a registered manager in 2002, and since then have enjoyed working within the care industry in management or senior management roles.

I have a keen love of the outdoors, sitting in the sunshine and a passion for writing fantasy and fiction novels.

I joined the Future Care Group as a HCA then progressed to a senior and now I’m the administration manager, over my time with the company I have built up relationships with families over their loved ones and now I’m the contact for them as they contact the home. My role is fast paced and each day is different.

Sarah Barratt

Head Chef

I’m Sarah, the Head of Catering! I have been at Oaklands for 21 years, where I actually started as a Carer. I often helped in the kitchen where I was mentored by the chef and began to learn about food preparation, diet and nutrition. I progressed to Chef and now Head Chef, and I am proud of my achievement and running our team.

We are always looking for ways to make food interesting, irrespective of dietary need. As a keen Baker I love to try out new recipes. I have a team of 5 chefs and kitchen assistants all of which are focused on providing a positive meal time experience.
