“I’m 60 years old and retired 4 years ago from a career in Finance. I soon realised that retirement left me with a lot of time, so I decided I needed to find something I could do to put something back in to society and feel I was making a difference. As a family we his used the services of Home Instead to assist my Father in Law to stay in his own home. I thought this is something I could do and felt I would enjoy. I joined the Home Instead Lancaster Team 2 months ago and absolutely love it. I now regular clients who I felt privileged to meet and assist in their own homes. I can honestly say it has changed my life and feel I am contributing to improve their quality of life and overall happiness. I wish I had thought of this a been my first career choice all those years ago. It’s great being part of a team, who have been incredible in their support and training. I’m learning new skills and this has enhanced my life as well as those I care for”
