The support and service provided could not have been better. It was a pleasure to meet Jackie from WT Dunbar and she was great at keeping me on the straight and narrow amid many distractions (not least COVID).

Jackie at the Queensferry road office was so understanding and supportive at one of the most stressful times we all face. From helping me to pick the music and giving me time with the decisions made.
