David
Firs Court Service Manager
Hello! I’m David, the Service Manager at Firs Court, The Fircroft Trust’s supported living and residential care service in Chessington. I am passionate about a person-centred approach, ensuring the people we support have as much control over their lives as possible.
With 25 years of experience in social care, I have worked across various supported settings, supporting individuals with complex behavioural, health, and physical needs. Over 20 years in management, I have led teams of various different sizes and believe in self-managing skilled teams through engagement rather than setting directives.
I have worked with a variety of different stakeholders including the CQC, achieving GOOD ratings and always striving towards OUTSTANDING with my teams. I believe in building strong partnerships with families, friends, and stakeholders of the people we support to promote healthy partnerships based on trust, ensuring the support we deliver is bespoke and of the highest quality.
