Company background
The company is co-owned by Mr. Emmanuel Penduka and Mr. Stewart Tendeka Chigumira, with Stewart also the registered manager.
In establishing YourCare24, both Emmanuel and Stewart shared a deep commitment to providing high-quality, compassionate care that could help people live independently in their own homes. We saw a need not only in Sheffield but also in different areas across England, where personalised care services were needed, that not only met the essential personal care needs of clients but also upheld their dignity and sought innovative ways to promote their independence.
Emmanuel and Stewart met each other through family connections and decided to establish their co-owned business after both attending a business seminar in 2015 hosted by South Yorkshire Christian Business Fellowship Group (CBF); at the same time as which they were both working in the health and social care sector. Both Emmanuel and Stewart shared values and passion for making a positive impact in people's lives and quickly realised that their skills complemented each other well.
Over time they planned and developed the business, aiming to create a company that prioritised both the well-being of clients and the professional growth of its staff. Their shared vision became the driving force behind YourCare24, and on May 25, 2016, and officially launched the company with a commitment to setting a new standard in domiciliary care across Sheffield and South Yorkshire.
Our organisation benefits from the extensive experience and qualifications of our director's who collectively:
- bring more than 20 years of expertise in the health and social sector
- compassionate, innovative, and dedicated to delivering high-quality care, ensuring that every aspect of service delivery is grounded in real-world insights and best practices.
Staff
Emmanuel's background in business and mental health sector with Cygnet Hospital Sheffield paired with Stewart’s expertise in health as a qualified diagnostic radiographer in NHS (Leeds Teaching Hospitals), private sector (In Health Imaging and Alliance Medical) as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Radiographer and previous experience as a support worker with Brain Injury Rehabilitation Trust (BIRT) in Leeds and The Disability Trust York (York House Independent Hospital) which is an independent specialist assessment and neurorehabilitation hospital provided a strong foundation for YourCare24 building a service that prioritises both quality care and sound operational management.
Testimonials
'I would like to say a big thank you as always but on this occasion a special thank you to E and G over the past 2 weeks whilst my sister was away. There were times during this period where I wasn't able to go to mums. When I explained this to both carers nothing was too much trouble, they were accommodating and extremely supportive.'
'I believe the team are a fantastic team and really do have their clients health and wellbeing at the core of all that they do. This you can see is passed on to the staff who work for them, as the care they have so far and hopefully continue to be the case is very good. The team are friendly towards mum and have a level of care that with previous carers we haven't seen. They only want to do the best for mum and aim to be the best they can at every visit. My mum had a recent drop in her health and this caused her to be unwell and unresponsive. It were the carer who called the ambulance and made sure mum were admitted to the hospital, which I am very grateful for as I believe they helped to aid in mums turn around and enable her to make a good recovery to enable her to come home safe and well. I would like to thank you all for the great job you and your team are doing, thank you.'
