Our managerAbout Victor
Victor Zingoni joined one of our Canford Healthcare homes as deputy manager in December 2013, having spent the previous eight years managing a smaller, 28-bed facility in a seaside town in Essex. He came to Canford seeking a fresh challenge. He got his wish – challenges galore and a rapid promotion to home manager! In 2021 Victor won the Registered Managers’ category at the East of England area Great British Care Awards.
Although Victor loves working in residential care, as a fresh young care assistant he initially struggled with the concept. It’s very different in Zimbabwe where he grew up – families tend to stay and care for each other into old age. That why, for Victor, the thread of family runs so deeply through the home.
“At Cedars we’re not just a care home, we’re a home that cares!”
