About Support4 Independence Ltd's Founder
I am the managing director of Support 4 Independence Ltd, a company dedicated to providing person-centred care.
My career has been diverse, encompassing roles in the rehabilitation of people with brain injuries, mental health, learning disabilities, autism, and substance misuse.
I've also served as a transport manager and have run my own flooring business. In 2009, I founded Support 4 Independence, which initially focused on community support before expanding into supported living.
From humble beginnings as a social club at the local community centre, we've grown to establish our award-winning day service,
The Workshop. Throughout this journey, my goal will be to create opportunities and deliver truly personalised care.
