"My first experience of Unique was for my husband who had dementia. The carers were excellent helping him to shower and shave when he wouldn't let me help him. When I needed care myself, Unique was the obvious choice for me. I have been very happy and satisfied with the service I have received and would have no hesitation in recommending them."
