Unfading Care Ltd

Laura has a wealth of knowledge that comes from many years of experience in the Care sector. As we were getting to grips with setting up our care company, Unfading Care Ltd, we particularly appreciated her no-nonsense type of approach, combined with her strong work ethic and encouraging manner. Laura was a real answer to prayer. We had lodged an initial application with to the Care Inspectorate and we had received a reply with a long list of negative feedback. We felt discouraged as we had never registered a care company before. In came Laura, through a series of unusual events, and she agreed to be both our Mentor and Consultant as we navigated the choppy waters of getting our company registered. She held our hand and gave us very clear direction, whereby we felt not only much relieved but also very encouraged! She also gave us help with our policies and recruitment. We therefore strongly recommend taking Laura on board, you won’t regret it. In short, she is an expert with a heart of gold.
