Helen Blunden

I feel each of my roles has enabled me to develop the skills, knowledge and experience to lead me where I am today, which is passionate and dedicated in delivering a high service to our clients whilst empowering our staff to achieve their own goals and ambitions.

Ellie Binding
Registered Manager West Berkshire
My name is Ellie,
I began my career in the care industry at the age of 18, starting in forensic mental health services as a Healthcare Assistant (HCA). Over the years, I transitioned into community-based settings, where I steadily advanced into leadership and management roles.
My ethos is rooted in a culture of care and compassion. I am dedicated to innovating and implementing person-centered approaches that ensure the delivery of high-quality care. My commitment to these principles drives me to continuously seek ways to improve the lives of those in my care.
Outside of work, I cherish spending time with my young family and husband. Another great passion of mine is horses, and I enjoy any opportunity to engage with them.
EILISH Crook
Registered Manager Oxfordshire
My name is Eilish. I have worked in care now for several years in a variety of setting. My first role in care was as a bank support worker in a respite centre for adults with learning disabilities. I worked for this company for nearly 13 years working my way up the ranks to manager.
I then moved from here to work within the community, supporting people in their own homes.
During this time, I have worked with people who had mental health issues and end of life care.
I love the work that I do and I am passionate about ensuring people get the care they need and deserve in a person centered way.
In my spare time I spend time with my husband, our 2 girls and 2 dogs as well as seeing friends.
I do like reading, movies and cake!!
Russell Bloomfield
Director
My working life started as a part time trolley collector for a big American Retailer, and 15 years later after a brief spell in Australia I was running my own store. The experience of retail then took me to the position of Managing Director for an ethical retail chain in Bristol with the focus on Organic and high welfare products. The big change came when, with the support of my wife we invested in a Wiltshire Farm Foods franchise, which we managed for a couple of years.
Starting Bloomfield Care with Helen Blunden has been the most rewarding experience of all, learning all that goes in to provided exceptional Care. We are very proud of the approach we take, understanding the partnerships between us and our clients.
When I am not working, I fill in as taxi driver for our very busy children, with the 2 boys fully involved with Wimborne Rugby Club and our little girl wanting to go riding every spare minute.
Sophie Timbrell
Registered Manager Dorset
I started my career as a Care Assistant in a nursing home in Stroud. I worked there for two years before seeking more knowledge within different sectors of care and the industry.
By gaining more knowledge of the care industry, I then moved companies and worked as a Senior Support Worker in a Supported Living home in Stroud. Here I managed a team of 8 members of staff and 5 clients, completing all relevant paperwork and ensuring the home was run smoothly and all the clients and their families were happy with the care provided.
I completed my Level 5 in Health and Social Care, moved to Weymouth and I now manage Bloomfield Care in Dorset.
In my free time I’m a massive paddle boarding junkie, I love nothing more than spending the day in the sea on my board with friends and family. My favourite food is pizza. I have a Don Sphynx cat called Luna and a Boxer called Eadie.
