Surrey Care Home Celebrates 30th Anniversary With Its Longest-Serving Staff Member
Nested among acres of woodland, an Edwardian country home was turned into a care home in 1995.
That is how RMBI Care Co. Home Shannon Court was born. Located in the picturesque village of Hindhead, it first opened its doors three decades ago today. One of its first staff members was Glynis Thorne, who now celebrates her 30th anniversary working at this Home.
To mark Glynis’ and Shannon Court’s joint milestones, the management team launched a day-long party complete with a live music show, an outdoor barbecue for residents, staff and friends, and therapy pets for residents to stroke and enjoy.
“It has been an absolute honour and privilege to have worked at Shannon Court for three decades of my life. I have made so many great friends throughout this journey!” says staff member Glynis, who received a long-service award certificate, a present and a bouquet from Steve Stace, the Home’s Business Manager.”
“This has been a spectacular party. It is very fitting to celebrate both Shannon Court’s and Glynis’ 30th anniversary today, for no care home can function without the dedication of its staff members,” says Steve Stace. “Glynis’ heartfelt commitment to high quality care is a testimony of what we all aim to achieve each and every day.”
