A World Away

Parklands attracts care professionals from as far afield as Poland, India, Nigeria, South Africa and the Philippines. Setting up home in a new country brings its own challenges – from the local accents to the Scottish climate – but Parklands’ international staff have embraced their new life in Scotland and are relishing the opportunity to progress their careers. Patience from Zimbabwe feels confident about her future. “I feel my tomorrow will be better because of Parklands.”

From tea parties to pride events and community playschemes, Parklands is rooted in the communities it serves.

We’ll hear from care staff who have remained loyal to Parklands for decades, and some who have even travelled from around the world to make Parklands their new home. And we'll listen to the voices of the remarkable people they care for, whose lives are filled with laughter, love and appreciation.
