June Spindloe
Relocation Nova Scotia Inc
June and Mark Spindloe emigrated to Canada in 1996 and moved to Nova Scotia from Southampton UK. She very quickly realised that there was very little 'one on one' support and information available for newcomers, who rely soley on government websites etc., .
As a result of this she started her own business Relocation Nova Scotia Inc. She set up a service that anyone can access and is tailored to your needs. Relocation Nova Scotia has a selection of cost effective services and partners that will save you time and money. We can also organise assistance for Recce trips, accommodations , banking and networking .
June is also a certified Life Coach and has coached newcomers right from the early planning stages of their move. Recently she has been working with MOD Service leavers who are interested in emigrating to Canada instead of returning to civvy street in the UK. Service leavers are ideally suited to becoming new immigrants , and given the right circumstances can start planning their move early if they have the correct information and support to make it happen.
June produced her own immigration planner/workbook last year to be used as a tool with the coaching sessions.
Emigrating is an unfamiliar process for most families and its hard to know who to trust and where to begin, working with us will give you that support and information that you need. Initial consultations are free.
If you are wondering how to start planning a new life in Canada contact me:
Tel 902-431-8689 or Email:June@relocationnovascotia.com
