At Garden Village our responsibility to care for our community is where we do our greatest good. The care sector is the cornerstone of strong communities and women make up the majority of our wonderful caring workforce. Over eighty percent of the Garden Village workforce are women who are also raising and supporting families and grandchildren outside of work. Supporting women in leadership positions is more important than ever as Garden Village and our sector continually improve our services, clinical governance and care.
