Meet The Brighton Team

Anita Bramley

Managing Director

After qualifying as an Occupational Therapist, I worked with a variety of customer groups including working age adults and older adults within the area of acute mental health. As an Occupational Therapist, I take a holistic approach to both mental and physical wellbeing, with an emphasis on promoting independence, and enabling and empowering individuals to achieve their full potential, whilst respecting their values, dignity and freedom of choice at all times.

I am passionate about delivering the highest standards of professional domiciliary care to the vibrant community of Brighton and Hove, enabling individuals who choose to remain living independently in their own homes.

Susannah Deuk

Managing Director

I started with a degree in psychology which led to a career looking after children with learning difficulties and severe autism. This then progressed to working for many years with people in their older years with mental health issues particularly specialising in supporting people who had dementia as well as supporting and advising their families. There were lots of facets to the job but I thrived in helping them to remain at home when they so wished by assessing their personal needs and arranging for suitable support to be put in place to enable that to happen.

I am passionate about seeing people who wish to be cared for, and supported to continue to live in their own homes, are enabled to do so with competent caring staff who are able to ensure that everyone is looked after as an individual.
Caremark as a company ensures that those people who wish to stay in their own homes get to do this by being looked after by caring, competent, well trained staff and I am proud one of the managing directors of this company.
