Since then Darren has taken time to build his knowledge across the Social Care sector before moving into the Mental Health recruitment sector.

Darren was the first person to launch a truly dedicated mental health consultancy business and built the business from 1 to 25 consultants over a 24 month period.

Since leaving his previous business role Darren has looked at new ways to develop unique staffing solutions to the mental health industry and is excited by the future plans of Hojona Mind and the new businesses we are looking to launch over the next 12 months.
