Meet The Arun Team
Andrew Demetriou
Managing Director
Andrew has gained extensive working knowledge and experience within the domiciliary care sector over many years, since starting with Caremark Worthing & Adur in 2010. Andrew has successfully established and developed a further two more offices; Caremark Chichester and Caremark Arun. He has developed a deep sense of passion and respect for the nature of the business and the individuals that it helps to support. He cares deeply for both the welfare of all Caremark customers as well as staff, without whom, of course, there would be no Caremark. Together with all Caremark staff, Andrew attributes the growth and success of all the businesses to this sense and spirit of responsibility.
Lauren Demetriou
Director
Lauren has always supported Andrew in the Caremark venture, however actively joined the business in 2013 on a part-time basis supporting the Caremark Worthing & Adur office with admin duties and recruitment. This gradually progressed to a full-time recruitment role. Lauren is now director for the 3 offices. A confident people-person with good organisational skills, she thoroughly enjoys this role and being able to advocate for the industry as well as the businesses.

Verity joined Caremark Arun in August 2020 as a care assistant. With her caring nature and willing to learn attitude, Verity’s skillset was quickly acknowledged, and she was offered the position of Care Coordinator. Verity co-ordinates the Bognor, Angmering and surrounding areas. She is also currently working towards her NVQ Level 3 in Health and Social Care.
Kirsty Isted
Care Coordinator
Kirsty began her career in retail. However, after welcoming her son into the world, she felt the pull for a more meaningful career path. Amidst the challenges posed by Covid-19, Kirsty transitioned into the care industry. Starting as a dedicated care assistant, she found her footing and her role developed into becoming a care co-ordinator. In 2023, Kirsty joined Caremark, and dedicates herself to the role of care co-ordinator, overseeing and organising essential aspects of caregiving. Beyond the fulfilling aspects of her professional life, Kirsty finds joy and purpose in her role as a family person. Spending quality time with her partner and her son is what fuels her passion for both work and life. Kirsty states she is truly grateful to be in a job she loves, where everyday presents an opportunity to make a positive impact in the loves of those she cares for.
Lauren Moody
Recruitment Executive
Lauren’s journey in care started at her family business in Kent in 2014 as a care assistant. She loved the pure satisfaction of helping people daily and the variety of people she met, helped and learnt about. She completed an NVQ level 2 in Health and Social Care whilst working as a care assistant and then moved down to Littlehampton in 2019. Lauren joined Caremark Arun and felt like she had found somewhere she can settle and be a part of for the foreseeable future. Lauren had a little girl in May 2020 and after coming back from maternity leave was offered a new role as Recruitment Executive. The role works very well around her family life and she enjoys finding likeminded people that have the same values as the team. As of 2023, Lauren is also now our in house trainer, providing our care and support workers with a wealth of important knowledge, supporting them in their roles.
