Testimonials
We are delighted that so many of our clients are happy to share their experiences with TimeFinders.
Having lost my husband, and having no family, I found myself in a very lonely place. Finding TimeFinders, who helped me plan out my life as years advance, and knowing that there’s always someone there if I need them has given me the peace of mind and the strength to carry on as my husband would have wished.
Mrs S.D – Advocacy Client. Berkshire
“The team at TimeFinders are simply excellent. They truly understand the challenges of living with dementia and how important it is that those living on their own have a voice and someone to turn to for help to navigate the confusing options over health care and medical treatment.”

“With their specialist knowledge and compassionate approach TimeFinders help people who are at the most vulnerable time of their lives when they are dealing with loss or drastic changes in their health to recover their confidence and to live as independently as possible.”

Sir R.G. – Surrey
“I’ve seen the other residents’ apartments – they are sterile, just what you’d imagine a care home room to be, but you have made this feel just like our old home. All you favourite pieces of furniture and pictures are here. My wife thinks we have lived here for years.”

Major J.P. – Bedfordshire
“I am reassured to have an independent professional keeping a close and affectionate eye on my mother”.
Mr I.J.M, Vancouver
“The living grief of seeing a beloved parent struck with dementia can be heartbreaking. The practical difficulties in disposing of the family home and arranging things from Vancouver with an 8-hour time difference would have been overwhelming if it had not been for TimeFinders. Alison has been there for me – caring, supportive, positive and practical”.
Mr I.J.M, Vancouver
“I have recently had to move from the home of more than 40 years to a nursing home. I was put in touch with TimeFinders to assist me with the process of downsizing and preparing my house for the market. I have been overwhelmed, not by the process, but by the thoroughness and compassion they have displayed. Nothing leaves the house without my approval, whether paperwork, clothing, ornaments, kitchenalia etc. They have acted as my primary contact for auctioneers, charities, rubbish disposal and estate agents. They are very sensitive in their suggestions, always understanding what an emotional process it has been for me. Their professionalism and sensitivity have been amazing, and I am more than happy to recommend them”.
Mrs R, Surrey
“Alison offers a ‘bespoke’ service which is impressively well organised, efficient and of high quality”.
~
“Alison’s natural calm and sympathetic manner puts all clients at ease and no issue is too small for her to help with. TimeFinders are now working with two families at our home, and I would certainly recommend Alison to anyone who is looking to downsize”.
H, General Manager, Sunrise Senior Living
