Quality & Compliance Manager

Cheryll Champion

My journey in social care began at the age of 12, working in a care home for older people where I made tea and helped residents by reading and writing letters. Since then, I’ve dedicated my career to the sector, supporting people of all ages in a variety of roles – from Support Worker and Registered Manager to Behaviour Specialist. I’ve also delivered Sex Education for adults with learning disabilities, helping to promote independence and informed choices.

I first came across LDC during my time as a CQC inspector, and it wasn’t long before I was delighted to officially join the LDC family. I’ve since had the privilege of shaping and developing the role of Quality and Compliance Manager – a position that brings together my passion for high standards, person-centred care, and continuous improvement.

Head of IT

Keith Easley

My IT journey began over 20 years ago as an apprentice at Pfizer, followed by a role in the British Army as a tri-service CIS and Telecommunications Specialist—an experience that built my resilience and technical skills. I then moved into the private sector, working as a Senior Systems Administrator and project lead, supporting clients across education, healthcare, defence, maritime, construction, energy, and finance. After that, I led international IT operations for an oil and gas company, becoming their Head of IT. For the past five years, I’ve been Head of IT and Data Protection Officer at LDC, where I ensure secure, innovative systems that support both our teams and the people we care for. I’m passionate about using technology to enhance lives and improve our services.

Financial Controller 

James Hunt

I joined LDC in 2023 after 25 years in the retail motor industry where I led finance teams and supported operations across complex, fast paced and high growth businesses. I joined LDC looking for a new challenge in a sector that truly matters and where I could use my skills and experience to make a positive impact.

Property Coordinator

Steve Rosen

Before joining LDC I worked for 20 years in the facilities and property sectors, my roles ranged from Facilities and operations Manager to a Branch Manager in estate agency. I have always had a passion for property especially helping people find their dream homes or assisting them in finding better and more suitable accommodation. However I never really felt that I was impacting on peoples lives in a real meaningful way.  I joined LDC in March 2024 to oversee the property department, I have found the role incredibly fulfilling. I get a real sense of reward and satisfaction in helping find suitable homes for the people we support as well as supporting any day to day property requirements they may have.

Positive Behaviour Support Lead

Michael Park

Before joining LDC, I was the Registered Manager of a 14-bed residential service for adults with acquired brain injuries, physical disabilities, and rehabilitation needs. During this time, I completed my Level 5 in Practice Leadership in Positive Behaviour Support (PBS).

Keen to develop further in PBS, I joined LDC to manage services supporting young adults with complex needs transitioning from prisons, secure units, and hospitals. While in this role, I received several accolades: Registered Manager of the Year at the Kent Integrated Care Awards, finalist at the British Care Awards, and Inspirational Leadership Award at the LDC Care Hero Awards. Two of my teams also won Respect and Accountability Care Hero Awards for their outstanding work.

In 2025, following LDC’s accreditation as a PROACT-SCIPr-UK® Centre, I became a Principal Instructor and, in April, stepped into the role of PBS Lead. This role allows me to drive excellence in PBS across the organisation and champion meaningful, positive change.

Sophie Young

I joined LDC in December 2024 to lead the People Team, bringing with me a strong background in strategic HR leadership. Prior to LDC, I held senior HR roles across several schools and worked as an HR Consultant supporting a wide range of public and private sector clients. I’m passionate about creating positive, inclusive workplace cultures and driving people-focused strategies that support both individual and organisational growth.

Maintenance Manager

James Cox

Apart from a short period, I've always worked within the construction industry.  At school I went to Folkestone college to do a course in carpentry,  painting and decorating and bricklaying. I went on to work for a construction company before going into a family partnership in a general building company for just over thirty years. In that time, I worked on small building projects to new hospital wings. Six years ago, with a heavy heart, I had to leave the company due to medical issues. I had a break in work for two years and planned to return to work in a part time role whatever that would be. Having seen an advert for LDC I thought to myself, why not "give it a go". Straight away I knew this was a place I wanted to work and haven't looked back.

General Administrator

Chloe Doré

Before joining LDC Care in April 2024, I spent nearly eight years working in Pastoral Services within education. Since then, I’ve discovered a creativity I never knew I had! I’m passionate about my role, which includes overseeing The Hub facilities and managing all of LDC Care’s social media—both online and offline. Even though my role includes a bit of everything, it plays an important part in supporting the day-to-day operations and helping create lasting, meaningful impact in the lives of the people we support.
