I've worked with Mark for years. He's a responsive, empathetic case manager who delivers seamless, centred care through strong communication, clinical insight, and a commitment to client wellbeing.
Mark joined as a co-opted governor and soon became vice-chair. His SEND expertise & governance leadership strengthened school practices, contributing to a successful OFSTED inspection & improved student support.
Christine Anderson was a fantastic case manager for our son. Her professionalism and dedication were evident in every aspect of her work.
Mark and the team are committed to providing a rehabilitation program that supports not only the client but the family aswell. We have only experienced professionalism and care at the highest level.
I have worked with Support for Independence on several cases. I'm always so reassured when to discover that they are the support team, as I know that they always provided the highest level of support.
The support workers make every client feel valued, this is achieved by the management meeting the client initially to understand the client, the client's family and the clients' goals and matching the support worker to the individual.
All the support workers are highly trained and supported by a large management team. The support workers are perfectly matched with the Clients the same interests and passions.
