Juniper House

Blogs

Juniper House in Brackley, Northamptonshire, is the UK’s first Passivhaus care home, built by Castleoak and Barchester Healthcare.

Catherine brought knowledge, insight and incisive reasoning to our discussions and her willingness to give her time and energy have made her a huge asset. She has a wonderful way of coming back to important points when we gloss over them and where necessary makes sure we action them. The Association has been very fortunate to have Catherine serve on both the Environment & Sustainability and Research & Grants Committees, and she is more than deserving of the Association Award.

Association of Anaesthetists
Richard and Catherine provided us with expert guidance and personal support along a journey of improvement and cultural change. By bringing together operational staff, managers, trustees and volunteers they have shown us how we can work better together at setting direction, delivering our priorities and measuring the quality, effectiveness and impact of everything we do.

Robert Ball
Chief Executive
Catherine and Matt are a pleasure to collaborate with. They combine expertise, creativity and pragmatism to deliver high quality work which provides a sound basis for future action.

Chief Executive
Care City
Catherine impressed us straight away with her quick grasp of the essentials and the ferocious energy she displayed in coming to grips not just with the immediate problem but with the underlying issues which had left us in a very weak position.

Executive Member for Culture
London Borough of Camden
Working with Catherine is so easy. Her knowledge, skill and determination are balanced with common sense. There is never a feeling that she is just recycling material off the shelf. It is always fresh, relevant and challenging. And it’s always on time.

Deputy Regional Director (Social Care)
Department of Health
Catherine ran two creative and inspiring sessions for the Citizen’s Council which enabled members to grapple with the concept of ‘societal value’. Council members with different backgrounds and perspectives were encouraged to challenge their own and others’ ideas constructively, and this helped set the tone for the sessions which followed.

Associate Director, Research and Development
NICE
Catherine has worked with SCIE to deliver an innovative and unique programme of work that has placed sustainability as a key consideration in the provision of social care. Her skill has been to work successfully with all of the stakeholders in health and social care, including people who use services, to ensure that our research and guidance is genially co-produced.

Director
Social Care Institute for Excellence
Catherine has generated excellent consultancy work for NHS Tower Hamlets. She is good with stakeholders, joins things up and produces reports of high quality. I like the fact that she follows up on the work and is obviously genuinely committed to getting results.

Associate Director (Employment)
NHS Tower Hamlets
Catherine delivered a tough project on an unrealistic timescale to a demanding client group on budget. I would unhesitatingly recommend her.
