The business now employs 56 people and is looking to grow further as more agencies and individuals call upon its services.
Sarah Caines, a director of Navigation Support & Care Services, said: “Due to the growth of our business and the nature of this work, we are always looking for more staff. We are currently looking to fill three new positions, but working for us is not simply a job, it is a vocation.”
Navigation Support & Care Services, which was established just three years ago, offers support to people with learning disabilities and physical difficulties and their families.
Sarah and her husband Aldrin Caines established the service after Aldrin took redundancy from his former post as a Lincolnshire County Council Community Support Manager.
Sarah said: “When we opened Navigation in April 2011 we hoped that everything would go well, but we never envisaged moving to such prestigious premises this quickly. This has happened due to the outstanding work of our wonderful team, which we cannot thank enough.”
The new premises were leased to the company by chartered surveyors Banks Long & Co.
Jag Landa, a surveyor at Banks Long & Co, said: “We are pleased to have assisted Navigation Care & Support Services with its expansion. This is a growing service business and it is pleasing to know that the Carlton Centre premises are already proving ideal for its needs.”

Lincolnshire County Council (LCC) has confirmed plans to jet-wash blocked gullies in Leadenham following persistent flooding, which has left residents and businesses in constant fear of property damage during heavy rainfall.
The council intends to jet the A607 outside Leadenham Post Office as an urgent measure to mitigate ongoing flood risks, with a full clean scheduled for January. The announcement comes after a plea from Leadenham Parish Councillor Martyn Everett, who highlighted significant flooding along Sleaford Road.
A senior lecturer recently celebrated the news that East Midlands Railway will increase its train capacity on what he felt was an “overcrowded” service between Lincoln and Leicester.
Amir Badiee lives in Loughborough and for the past seven years has been commuting to his job at the University of Lincoln, but over the last two years he believes the train service has got worse. When he complained back in March he said he didn’t receive any response, but he believes his recent concerns aired in The Lincolnite helped to prompt a positive outcome.
