Neuroblastoma UK
Melody Care are very proud to be one of the official corporate partners of Neuroblastoma. Simon Carter, owner and founder of Melody Care said, “I have a long-standing friendship with Tony Heddon, Chair of Trustees at Neuroblastoma UK. 20 years ago, Tony and I had daughters at primary school with a little boy called Greg Faithfull, who had neuroblastoma. We were all devastated when Greg sadly died aged just five years old. Everyone at Melody Care wants to support the vital work of Neuroblastoma UK to help more children like Greg and raise lots of money to fund much-needed research into this cruel disease.”
Sticky People
By offering some of the best pay packages in the area, we tend to attract a significant number of applicants. In order to identify those staff who share the same values as we have, we ask them to take a short online psychometric test developed by Sticky People. Providing award winning candidate screening tools along with best practice recruitment and retention techniques, Sticky People have over 12 years’ experience in social care with over 1,000 users in the UK.
Surrey Care Association
We are members of the Surrey Care Association (SCA) and Simon Carter, the owner of Melody Care, is the Chairperson.
Working Feedback
Independent review company Working Feedback is used by hundreds of care providers across the UK to gather and publish reviews to CQC and NHS Friends, with Melody Care amongst them.
