Keep an eye out for our Senior Carer's new whip. She's a big fan of Thomas the Tank engine so we thought she'd love this.
Limited to 30mph this little beauty will give everyone chance to see Debbie plodding through the mean streets of Boston Spa.
Give her a wave if you see her 👋

Max and Bailey love being at the office but aren't too happy when Sue has to pop out and visit some of our wonderful clients.

The NHS have just awarded us another contract to provide care services on their behalf for the next 4 years.

This is something that we are very proud to do and want to continue doing for as long as possible.

It's a pretty rigorous process but it's worth it.
It enables us to continue providing care to any of our existing clients should they move onto NHS continuing healthcare funding.

Keep up the amazing work team.

There has been some publicity recently about the real cost of employing people in the current economic climate.

I wanted to add some context from our experiences.

Comparing December 2020 to December 2025 we have seen a 25% drop in staff numbers, a 7% drop in productivity, but a 26% increase in staff costs.

Once I adjust the figures to give a like for like comparison, then we are looking at a staff cost rise of over 60%.

Our government is in cloud cuckoo land if it thinks we can simply increase profit to cover the additional staffing costs.
Our productivity has gone down not up. All our other operating costs have gone up too. Gas, electric, insurance, paper, PPE etc. Our rent went up 19% in 2025!!

This is the hardest we have seen things since starting the business in 2011.

Many many businesses will close at the hands of our government if they do not sort this self inflicted mess out soon.

Support your local businesses as much as you can afford to before they are gone forever.

Another family member has kindly taken their time to email and thank us. It really does make it all worth it.

Unlike several care providers out there, we don't publicise or glamorise the efforts we go through to ensure we get to our clients in the extremes of weather. Our amazing team just cracks on and does it.

Emails like this serve to remind us that we do makes a difference, no matter what. Well done team and well done Lisa.

Dear Sue,

We would like to thank you and your team for the care you are providing for our parents, M and G.

Mum’s medication has settled and the pressure between us to ensure it has been taken has gone.

We’d especially like to thank Lisa who has wonderfully got the measure of Mum and Dad, she makes Mum smile and just gets on with various bits of cleaning. (Despite their protestations that all is done!) It feels like they have a motivation to get up in the mornings (even if only to avoid being caught in bed !) and the house is fresher.

The continuity of visits throughout Christmas and the recent snowy/icy weather have been a great relief.

Very many thanks,
H and P
