Founded by a Disability Expert

Our founder has spent years as an Employment Adviser supporting people with disabilities and health conditions — giving Unity Staffing an unmatched depth of understanding in care and SEN.

02

Ready to Place Immediately

With 56 pre-vetted workers already on our books, we can respond to your staffing need today — not in two weeks. Every worker is DBS checked, trained, and referenced before placement.

Enhanced DBS, right to work, safeguarding training, references — every single worker, every single time. We never cut corners, because the people we support deserve nothing less.

Built on expertise.
Driven by values.

Unity Staffing Ltd was founded by someone who truly understands the care and education sectors — not just as a business owner, but as a practitioner who has spent years supporting vulnerable people.

Our Story

Why Unity Staffing Was Founded

Unity Staffing Ltd was created by an Employment Adviser with years of specialist experience supporting people with disabilities, long-term health conditions, and complex needs into sustainable employment.

That background isn't just a professional credential — it's the foundation of how we operate. We understand EHCPs, reasonable adjustments, the Social Model of Disability, and what it means to match the right person to the right role with genuine insight.

Unity Staffing exists because the care and education sectors deserve a staffing agency that truly understands the people it serves — not just one that processes CVs and sends invoices.

Work With Us
Our Mission

"To connect compassionate, skilled workers with the people and organisations who need them most."

We believe the right support — at the right time, from the right person — has the power to transform lives. Every placement we make carries that responsibility, and we take it seriously.

Our Values

What We Stand For

People First

Every decision we make — from how we recruit workers to how we match them to roles — starts with the wellbeing of the people being supported.

Integrity

Transparent, honest, and fair in everything we do. Our compliance standards are non-negotiable because the safety of vulnerable people depends on them.

Inclusion

We champion equal opportunities for workers and service users alike. Our founder's background in disability employment means inclusion is embedded in our DNA.

Quality

We never compromise on the standard of workers we place. Every worker is fully vetted, trained, and referenced — every single time, without exception.

Responsiveness

When you need staff, you need them quickly. We pride ourselves on fast, reliable responses — same-day cover when you need it most.

Community

We are invested in improving outcomes for the communities we serve — hiring locally, paying fairly, and supporting workers to build lasting careers in care and education.

Our Compliance Promise

Zero compromise. Every time.

Every Unity Staffing worker meets the same rigorous compliance standards before being placed on any assignment. No exceptions.

Enabling independence for direct payments clients.
