The Beginning
The foundations of our organisation.
In 2011, Joanne and Rajen Mawjee established the foundations of the organisation as it is known today, bringing together their experience, knowledge and shared vision for delivering high-quality, compassionate care.
Their ambition was to develop services where people would not simply receive support, but would feel genuinely at home, respected and empowered to make decisions about their own lives.
Together, Joanne and Rajen brought a wealth of professional experience across health and social care, forming the foundations of the organisation's person-centred approach.
Joanne is a Registered Occupational Therapist with extensive experience across older people's care, paediatrics and community learning disability services. Her career has included supporting the transition from institutional care to community-based living, as well as working collaboratively with architects to design and develop purpose-built, needs-led homes tailored to the individual requirements of people with learning disabilities.
Rajen's extensive nursing and management background includes qualifications as a Registered Nurse for People with Learning Disabilities (formerly RNMH), Paediatric Nurse and Community Child Health Nurse.
Throughout his career, he has held roles including Charge Nurse for adults with learning disabilities, Manager of Domiciliary Care Services for children with complex health needs, and Transition Facilitator, supporting young people with complex health needs as they move into adult services.
The combined clinical expertise, practical experience and understanding of individual needs helped shape Redcroft Care Services and LiN Group.
The organisation was built on dignity, independence, choice and creating environments where people can truly feel at home.
