MEET THE TEAM

Colette Dunn

Care Manager

With over 25 years of experience in the care sector, I have dedicated my career to supporting people across a wide range of health and social care settings. My journey in adult social care began in 1999 after moving to Wales, having previously worked in childcare as a registered childminder.

Over the years, I have gained extensive knowledge and hands-on experience working within social services, residential care, EMI and nursing settings, as well as local hospital environments. I have also held Registered Care Manager positions for three different care companies and now proudly work as the Registered Manager for Affinity Care.

I hold NVQ Level 3, NVQ Level 4, and a Level 5 Diploma in Care and Leadership, all of which have helped shape my passion for delivering high-quality, person-centred care and supporting both clients and care teams to thrive.

Outside of work, I am a proud nanny to two gorgeous grandsons who I love spending time with. In my spare time, I enjoy gardening, swimming, walking, and making the most of holidays with family and friends.
