ABOUTÂ US
I’m Ellie Clarkson, founder of Clarverdo Ltd
With over 30 years of hands-on leadership in adult social care and more than a decade as an independent consultant, I specialise in helping care providers strengthen governance, achieve compliance and lead with confidence.
My career has taken me from Registered Manager to Regional Manager, Director of Services and Nominated Individual. Along the way, I’ve stabilised services in crisis, guided providers through enforcement action, and rebuilt trust with regulators, families and staff.
What sets me apart is the combination of governance expertise and frontline understanding. I’ve worked shoulder-to-shoulder with teams and Boards alike, and I know the realities of leading under pressure.
