"We don't refer to Debs as "the oracle" for nothing. She is my go to person if I need to know anything about SEND, business and finances. She explains things in a way I understand and is filled with ways to help you develop your ideas!. She has a way of making it slot into place, feel much easier and more of a molehill than a mountain."

"Debs is always my go to person when I need help, advice and support. When I have been in crisis mode, not knowing what the next step is, or thinking of giving up, she is always there to offer practical and helpful solutions and most importantly to calm me down. Every parent carer needs a Debs in their life!"

"Debs has been a massive help with getting me focused and deciding on what to create my business around.

The best part is her understanding around being a parent with special needs kids, so she could always tell if I was pushing myself too much and needed a reminder to take care of myself instead."

"Debs has been invaluable in terms of listening to my ideas and helping me to find some clarity.

She's a fantastic source of knowledge and support and I highly recommend working with her!"
