Enabling Care For You Ltd

Philippa Founded Enabling Care For You in 2013 alongside Lesley, following a longstanding professional partnership that began in a residential care home in Plaxtol, Sevenoaks, where Philippa held the role of Manager.

After the birth of her youngest child, Philippa felt a strong calling to work within the community. She spent two years working for a mental health charity, gaining valuable experience before joining Kent County Council’s Commercial Services flagship care agency. There, her leadership skills quickly stood out. She progressed from Branch Manager to Registered Manager for Kent and Brighton, and was later promoted to Area Manager.

Philippa holds a Level 5 NVQ in Leadership for Health and Social Care, completed in 2008, and previously achieved Levels 2, 3, and 4 in Care. Her career in health and social care spans over 25 years, during which she has consistently demonstrated a passion for high-quality, person-centred support.

Driven by a belief that care could be done better, Philippa took the bold step to start her own agency, and Enabling Care For You was born. Under her leadership, the agency has developed a strong reputation for specialist support for adults with palliative and complex care needs, combining compassion with clinical excellence.

Philippa is known for her hands-on approach, strong values, and unwavering dedication to improving lives through high-quality care at home.

Lesley brings over 40 years of experience in the care sector, with a strong foundation in residential care settings. While raising her young family, Lesley dedicated herself to supporting others, working hands-on in care throughout her early career.

In 1994, Lesley took the bold step of opening her own residential care home within her family home. What began with a single client quickly grew into a respected service supporting up to five residents. Lesley ran the home with warmth, professionalism, and a deeply personal touch for 24 years, until it closed in 2017 due to family logistics.

She holds the Registered Manager’s Award (RMA) and has completed Levels 2, 3, and 4 in Health and Social Care, demonstrating her commitment to both practical and leadership roles in care.

Lesley originally joined Enabling Care For You as a sleeping partner, offering support in the background while the agency found its feet. However, as the business expanded and the demand for experienced leadership grew, Lesley’s wealth of knowledge and hands-on expertise became an invaluable part of the operation.

Today, Lesley plays an active role in the running of the business, bringing seasoned insight, compassion, and a deep understanding of client needs to the heart of Enabling Care For You — a company shaped by her dedication and decades of real-world experience.
