MEET OUR TEAM

Chairman of the Board

Every organisation needs someone who can remain calm under pressure, think strategically and quietly get things done. Our Chairman leads with wisdom, integrity and an unwavering commitment to the future of Forest Farm. Much like a certain well-known British secret agent, he understands that success comes from careful planning, decisive action and surrounding yourself with an exceptional team. Thankfully, the only missions here involve improving lives, strengthening our community and ensuring Forest Farm continues to be a place where every resident can flourish.

General Manager

Heather joined the Forest Farm family just over a year ago, taking on the role of General Manager and overseeing the day-to-day running of the facility. With more than 25 years of experience in the industry, she brings a wealth of knowledge, strong leadership, and a genuine passion for resident care. Known for her warm approach and commitment to excellence, Heather maintains an open-door policy and welcomes residents and their families to connect with her at any time.

Financial Manager

Anthony became part of the Forest Farm team in December 2025, bringing with him over 30 years of experience in finance. His expertise ensures the financial stability of the organisation, but his contribution goes far beyond numbers. With a deep interest in theology and the humanities, Anthony is always available for residents who would like a meaningful conversation or simply someone to listen. While he may seem serious at first, his dry sense of humour soon shines through.

Operations Manager

Morgan officially joined the FFC team in April this year, after being involved for the past 5 years through our Outsourced Management Team. She now serves as Operations Manager, overseeing the day-to-day running of the Farm, including maintenance, renovations, care staff, cleaning, laundry, and grounds. Morgan brings a strong passion and energy to her role and is well loved by residents for her hands-on support and guidance. She is a valued part of the team.

Social Care Manager

Bulelwa, affectionately known as Buli to the Forest Farm Family, is our social care manager, she focuses on supporting residents’ wellbeing, listening to and resolving concerns, organising social activities, and connecting residents with the right resources. Buli is passionate about people and takes pride in being part of practical solutions that help everyone thrive. Fun fact – Buli is vegan.

Registered Nurse

Fifi joined Forest Farm Community (FFC) just over a year ago and is responsible for overseeing the medical care of our residents. She ensures that correct medication is administered, monitors daily vital signs, and helps maintain the overall health and wellbeing of all residents. She also manages our on-site care workers, supporting them to provide consistent, loving, and professional care. Although quiet and reserved, Fifi is a steady and reliable presence within the team, offering valuable input when needed and always putting the wellbeing of our residents first.

Driver & Care Support Hero

He is a valued member of our team and plays an important role in ensuring our residents are transported safely to hospital visits and social outings. More than just a driver, he is a trusted friend to the residents, who truly enjoy spending time with him on their journeys. In addition to his driving duties, he is also our on-site wheelchair repair expert, helping to keep essential equipment in good working order. When he is not on the road or fixing wheelchairs, he supports general farm maintenance and repairs around the property. His versatility, kindness, and dedication make him an indispensable part of the Forest Farm Community team.

Known for his fun-loving personality and genuine care for every resident, Frans is a firm favourite on the Farm. Residents especially look forward to Fridays, when he opens the Tuck Shop—always a highlight of the week!

Aux Social Worker

Thato joined Forest Farm in 2023 as an Auxiliary Social Worker. She spends much of her day interacting with and supporting our residents, building meaningful relationships along the way. Thato believes that if you take the time to have a conversation with our residents, you'll be surprised by how much they know and how much you can learn from them. Her favourite activities are art sessions and morning exercise, where she enjoys encouraging residents to express themselves, stay active, and have fun.
