      Feedback from our professional partners and stakeholders

      "The presentation was engaging, informative, and full of myth-busting insights that helped challenge common misconceptions about the sector. Attendees were actively encouraged to participate, ask questions, and share their thoughts, which created a lively and inclusive atmosphere."

      Jacqui  Corrigan,  Advisor (Job Centre Plus)

      "Sue made an excellent point during the session: we can train people on all the technical aspects, using equipment, following medication protocols, but genuine compassion can't be taught. It's an inherent quality. This is exactly the kind of honest conversation our learners need to have when considering care careers."

      Nicola Naylor, Program Manager (Bury Adult Learning)

      "I had no idea how many different roles exist within the care sector. It's' not just personal care there are kitchen jobs, support roles, and each one requires real skill and focus."

      Scott Richards, Employer Account Manager (Ingeus)
