Meet the Team

Heidi

Managing Director

We couldn’t start our ‘meet the team’ series without starting with where our company all began. And that’s down to this lady right here.

Heidi is our registered manager and daily inspiration to drive Good Companions forward. Heidi has over 20 years experience in the care industry specialising in Dementia, Alzheimers and Parkinson care.

After experiencing first hand the challenge of caring for a loved one at home, she created Good Companions as she felt so passionate about supporting others who may be struggling out there.

From starting out solo, Heidi now has a team of regular and bank staff working alongside her to provide care and companionship services to the good people of Spalding.

Heidi is currently studying for an HND in health and social care management.

Heidi says…
“As a company our belief is that to care and support others is a vocation and is born from truly feeling empathy, compassion and kindness to others. We care not only our clients but also their families/loved ones too. Here at Good Companions, we offer a holistic support service from our heart to yours.”

Thank you Heidi for all that you do!
