Julie Broomhead
Specialist Palliative Care Social Worker“I feel so lucky to live in North Derbyshire but only truly discovered the beautiful countryside 15 years ago when we got our dog.
“My number one joy is walking in Curbar, Beeley, Linacre and Baslow. Recently on my travels I met a family who had driven 50 miles to experience what I now pretty much take for granted!”
Learn what Julie gets up to during a typical day as a social worker at Ashgate.
Pam Garvey
Palliative Care Support Worker“I couldn’t really imagine living anywhere else, we have beautiful countryside for walks and lots of fabulous places to eat that suit all budgets and tastes. There also plenty of places to shop locally if I am in need of some retail therapy!
“There is a real community spirit where everyone looks out for each other. If we aren’t holding fundraising events, we are planning our next street party!”
Find out about when Pam celebrated 30 years at Ashgate last year.
Kelly Bartram
Inpatient Unit nurse“I really enjoy living and working here in Derbyshire. You get such a contrast of busy town life and then the more rural and beautiful countryside areas – they are only ever a stone’s throw away and ideal for walking my doggies!
“I feel very lucky that most of my family and friends live in and around Derbyshire and we love going on days out together.”
