Newton Aycliffe is named after the Anglo-Saxon settlement of ‘Acley’; ‘ac’ meaning ‘oak’ and ‘ley’ meaning ‘clearing.

Branch Care Manager
Hello, I'm Caitlin, Branch Care Manager of Helping Hands Durham Branch. As the Branch Care Manager, it is my responsibility to oversee the day to day running of our service in Durham, ensuring we are delivering safe, bespoke, and high-quality standards of care to our customers and their needs are being met at all times. It is also important that we ensure our carers feel supported and valued within their roles as without them we would not be the service we are today. It is important to me and my team to ensure we maintain the values of the company and always promote our customers independence to enable them to remain living within their own homes and for us to always strive to improve and develop the service we provide. In my spare time I love to spend quality time with my partner and my fur baby Obee - 1 going on walking adventures. I also like to travel the world and learn about new cultures and their ways of living. Some of my favourite places that I have travelled to are America, Australia, Thailand, St Lucia, Fiji, Dubai, Dominican Republic, and numerous Cities across Europe.
