Which Way To Care
I approached Katie for support, knowing she had successfully established her own CIC supporting individuals with dementia.
I’d had the same goal for some time, and Katie was so welcoming, encouraging, and generous in sharing her experience.
She offered invaluable practical advice on the business side, but also took the time to remind me of my own self-worth and to believe in myself. Her reassurance and guidance made a real difference and gave me the confidence to move forward.​
I would 100% recommend her.

Menopause Empowerment Initiative
Katie gave me the confidence to start my CIC and has been by my side every step of the way.
She believed in me when I doubted myself, and her support has been nothing short of incredible.
Through the Social Impact Academy, the whole process of setting up and securing funding became so much clearer and more achievable.
I’d recommend it to anyone thinking about starting a social enterprise.
