"Gladys have been brilliant in finding the right care for my Mum following a stroke, who lives on her own in a small village. The team are thoughtful and proactive. We'd be lost without them."

Ken P, Chewton Mendip
Client

"We used Gladys earlier this year when my Dad who suffered from heart failure and Alzheimer's went rapidly downhill after a hospital stay. As soon as we spoke to Gladys there was a huge sense of relief that they were able to help find us carers to support Dad and at very short notice. The carers were really lovely and able to match their services to what Dad needed, as it changed on a daily basis. They were very flexible and covered each other during any time off. We felt very grateful for Gladys for taking such a huge stress away from us and being a massive support at such a difficult time."
