A care home chef from Taunton retired this week after 42 years service.
Geoffrey Tremethick had worked at Calway House in Calway Road since May 1970, during which time he has seen the home completely rebuilt into an 83-bed property providing residential, dementia and nursing care.
His retirement party at the home this week was attended by past and present staff, residents, and other invited guests. Geoffrey was presented with many gifts, including an engraved glass plaque. Speaking at the event, Non-Executive Director Barrie Dale reflected on the many changes Geoffrey had seen in that time and noting that he would have served approximately 1.5 million meals during his 42 years.
