Melanie Johnson

Activities Coordinator

Melanie joined the Newgate Lodge activities team in 2025, bringing with her a wealth of experience and a deep passion for making a difference. After spending over 20 years working in community pharmacy, she realised she wanted a more fulfilling path. This led her into the care sector, where she spent 15 years supporting individuals in rehabilitation services.

Melanie’s favourite part of her role is knowing she makes a meaningful difference in residents’ lives every single day.

Outside of work, Melanie enjoys weekend getaways in her caravan with her husband-to-be and their two much-loved cockapoos, Lottie and Ella. She finds peace and joy unwinding by a scenic lake, soaking in the tranquillity of nature.
