Complaints procedure

We are committed to providing a professional and high quality service. One of the ways in which we can continue to improve our service is by listening and responding to the views of our clients.

Therefore we aim to:

• allow complaints to be made as easily as possible

• treat all complaints seriously

• deal with a complaint promptly and politely

• respond in the right way - for example, with an explanation or an apology where we have got things wrong and feedback on any action taken

• learn from complaints and use them to improve our services
