Comments from readers -

Just a quick note to say what a fabulous resource Oursource is!
We have found lots of valuable information but the best part is how approachable Caroline and the team are...In a world of greed and bitterness Oursource is a beacon of hope!..well done and keep up the great work Giles, Somerset 2009

this is a great service, our chef started work less than 2 weeks after we placed the advert. The screening really saves time, not one approved CV didn’t fit our criteria and it was all done for a fraction of the price of adverts in the local paper or other websites” Stewart. DeTracys Restaurant. Oct 08

Congratulations on this excellent resource.  You are totally in touch with the needs of the industry as it affects people like myself and the site contains information which is invaluable to my business (10 bedroom guest house) in a way no other does. Diane. Dec 07

 

"What a great e-mag!! Simple to navigate and all you need to know at your fingertips. I eagerly await each email to explore the latest contents such as property sales (I like to keep tabs on prices) and the 'News Articles and Features' section; take a look at the 'Beds and a Bit O'brekky' written by Steph from 'The Plaine BandB' it will make you laugh as it all sounds so familiar.

Well done Caroline, please ensure the magazine continues to feed our appetites."John Davis. November 2007
