Mark Tillman
Supported Living Manager
I joined White Leaf Support in January 2025 as a manager. I have worked in adult health and social care since 2007 in various support worker, learning and development, senior and management, and quality and compliance roles.
I strongly believe support work is about so much more than “just being a carer”. No two days in health and social care are the same and it is for this reason I enjoy the role so much. I have a passion for supporting people to live their life to the fullest and value working with teams to support every individual to reach their full potential. Because of this support work is a multi-skilled role.
Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family, I have two teenage children. I enjoy reading, watching films and going to the cinema. I really enjoying watching football and support Liverpool.
