Bio
Jo Humphrey
Having met Laura through a mutual friend around 6 months ago, we have not known each other very long. However from the very outset I have found her to be friendly, professional, approachable and always willing to help in any way she can. She has taken time to advise me both on professional and personal matters on numerous occasions and has quickly become the kind of person I know I can rely on. I would have absolutley no qualms in recommending Laura to anyone as I am completely sure her attention to detail and levels of care, attention and professionalism are the same both in work and in social situations. I am honoured that we are now friends.
