Our values define who we are and the way we do business.

Our FOUNDER
Rachel Springford
Our Managing Director
"As the Company Owner of
RLS Consultancy Services and a Managing Director for several children's homes and more recently a creation of a third company, Embracing Families which has led to the opening of their first Residential Family Assessment Centre, my journey is driven by a commitment to enhance the social care sector.
With a background as a Social Care Regulatory Inspector and Operations Director, my expertise lies in improving service quality and outcomes for children and young people.
Our team focuses on relationship development and analytical skills to transform registered care providers facing challenges.
Harnessing personal insights from my own experiences within the care system, we've successfully revitalised care facilities and empowered organisations to deliver exceptional care."
