"Really helpful to speak to a friendly advisor who could give me compassionate expert advice at a difficult time."
"It saved me hours of looking for information on my own and stop worrying about school application systems and missing deadlines. Now that I have more information I am able to structure a plan to work towards which will give me better focus at work for what I need to deliver."
"The expert provided an independent sounding board that was backed up by years of experience and insight. This was the most reassuring phone call I have had about decisions I'm making as a new parent and I'm truly grateful to have access to this service."
"I received a call at work about a family matter and was quite distressed. I was advised to use the employee helpline and spoke to a few different people who all gave reassurance and eventually I was allocated to someone amazing. She gave me reassurance and practical advice which helped focus on work and see a way forward."
"I needed advice regards social care for my mother, in particular how on assessments are carried out by local health authorities. The representative from the Work+Family Space replied very quickly via email and then phone to discuss my needs. She then compiled a very specific email with detailed information. I found the advice extremely useful and it helped me to understand and discuss my needs with the care home manager."
