Wendy founded the business with husband John in 1989, primarily in the care home sector. This was successful and when a local G.P. requested St Margaret’s help, with a client over the Christmas period, which we did, there started our journey into the Homecare Sector. In 2012 Wendy and John, decided to focus solely on the Homecare industry and offer an outstanding service in Harrogate. In recent years it has been extended to York and Selby.
Wendy, a qualified NVQ Registered Manager with CQC, has stepped back from the day-to-day running of the business but remains a valued source of guidance, offering insight drawn from over 40 years in care. Her dedication to staff and client wellbeing continues to shape the ethos of St Margaret’s. Staff numbers grow year on year to meet rising demand, and many team members have been with Wendy for 15–20 years—a reflection of the strong, supportive culture she’s helped build. It’s a legacy she remains deeply proud of.
