What Our Service Users Say

“As an unpaid carer I phoned the helpline to ask what evidence was needed. Very helpful person. Application completed and card received. Great service”

“Thank you so much for making the direct process easy to navigate. You got it all set up so quickly for my vulnerable mum.”

“Having caring responsibilities can be quite stressful and this team has gone out of their way to make the process of managing this as easy as possible.”

“I love my Blue sky social care card, as I am self employed and needed a ID card to prove that I am a personal assistant to my disabled client. I also love that my card membership gives me so many discounts, which is especially helpful with this economic crisis.”

“Thank you so much for making the direct process easy to navigate. You got it all set up so quickly for my vulnerable mum.”

“DD Payroll fully manages my PA payroll with consistent accuracy. Their staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and always quick to respond across all channels. Calls are answered promptly, which is rare these days, and all requests are handled efficiently. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.”
