Leonard Stanley What our staff say
Working with vulnerable service users and learning how it feels to be a support worker was the best choice I ever made.
J. kirkup
I’ve built up a really good relationship with them all and I take pride in being able to come to work, knowing that I’m doing my job to the best of my ability and helping to enrich their lives.
Ami
For me to be with SDHF so long comes down to the service users, knowing you make a difference to somebody else day no matter how big or small that maybe.
Laura Bradley
I have thoroughly been a part of the SDHF team over the last 7 years. I started as a support worker across two homes and appreciated the flexibility of the position enabling me to complete my NVQ5 at university.
Gemma Mould
I have spent my whole career in the health and social care sector and particularly like supporting people with learning disabilities. The job has its lighter moments and is challenging at time but I wouldn't want to work anywhere else.
Tony McGee
I have worked for Stroud Homes for a number of years now and really enjoy my job. No two days are the same and it is a very rewarding role.
Grace Ashton
My colleagues have been amazing and so welcoming, I have worked in several of the homes and every home has been so different which is what I have needed.

What I feel makes the organisation truly amazing is their dedication to staff and service users and I have enjoyed various holidays, day trips, concerts, and events with service users over the years.
Lettie Elgharbawy
Working for the company was a large part of my life which I enjoyed very much. The guys will always remain very special to me.
Julia
SDHFL is a wonderful organisation to work for. The commitment to the welfare of service users foremost but also staff is obvious. Working for a charity that is dedicated to enhancing the lives of vulnerable adults rather than profit focused is personally rewarding.
