Complaints
We are delighted to hear from those who use our services and find them helpful. However we realise that there are a minority who feel they have some form of complaint about the service received and we want you to know what you can do and what will happen in such a case.  We want to provide the best possible service and we always want to resolve any complaints. We will therefore read/listen carefully to what is said and respond. We will also learn any lessons that mean we need to change our procedures for the future.

We will pass your complaint to the person concerned and request them to respond to you initially within five working days.  In most cases the complaint will be able to be resolved by the person within that time. However, where the case cannot be resolved within 10 working days, the complaint will be investigated by the Line Manager responsible for looking after complaints and you will hear further from him/her within a further 20 working days.  (These turnaround times may be longer over Christmas and New Year or because of staff holiday/sickness).
If you are still dissatisfied with the outcome then the complaint will be referred to the Managing Director. Clear notes will be kept as to the procedures to be carried out and you will receive full details of the Managing Director’s decision.
