Meet the Manager
'Welcome to Southview Close. My name is Vivienne and l’ve been the working for MacIntyre in Wandsworth for the past 25 years. I am proud to lead a very experienced established team of staff some of whom have been working with me for over 20 years.
At Southview Close we recognise everyone as an individual and this is reflected in the support we offer. For some people this may mean heading out to the shops, local parks, theatre or cinema for others it may be doing puzzles, arts and crafts or cooking at home. We are passionate in supporting people to maintain relationships with friends and families in a way that they choose, this could be visits, facetime or phonecalls.
We are located in Tooting South London, which is a culturally vibrant area, with great transport links and lots of things to see and do locally. Or if people want time away from London we head down to the coast to get some fresh sea air!' - Vivienne Donald
