We are Ives and Tony Jordan, back in 1989 we built Treelands as our private home and in 1992 we opened as a residential care home for the elderly. Prior to this we had run a residential home in Exeter with Ives’ sister Francesca (who is now one of our kitchen team). 

We’ve extended several times over the past 32 years, but at heart we are still the same family run business we were and always hope to be. 

Thank you for taking the time to read my bio. My parents Ives and Tony Jordan built Treelands in 1990, along with my sister Jordanna this was our family home before we opened as a care home in 1992. This coincided with me leaving school, so I worked as Care assistant here from age 16 while taking my A levels at Exeter College. I then completed my NVQ level 2 in Direct care before moving away London to attend the London College of Fashion. In 1997 I moved back home to Exeter with my boyfriend Patrick and became Assistant Manager at Treelands. Moving to present day I'm now the Finance Director and my husband Patrick is the business support manager, we have three children together.

I have been involved with Treelands since my teenage years after growing up in the family business. I know every inch of Treelands and you can often find me here. These days I am the Operations Director, but you can still occasionally find me working the floor with our team. I have a grown-up daughter and granddaughter who visit Treelands frequently. We are still the same family-run business we have always been, just bigger!
