Getting them organised to work more effectively and becoming an invaluable part of their team."

Shannon Jugurnauth, Patch Founder & Chief
I started Purple Patch with a mission: to offer flexible support for businesses whilst helping skilled pa's fit working life around family life.
The business is continually adapting to the changing needs of clients and I love that no two clients are the same. We work with every type of business from carpet fitters to solicitors and luxury watch merchants.
If you're in need of help, but don't know where to start, get in touch with me at
shannon@purplepatch-pa.com.
Julie Reid, Patch Assistant
Julie joined the team in early 2018 and brings with her a wealth of experience in business support, administration and bookkeeping, having worked for a number of years in the banking and building industries.
After bringing up three boys, being a loving wife and with the addition of two cats and a tortoise, Julie has perfected organisation and patience in her own right. With her 'nothing is to much trouble' attitude and warm, friendly personality, Julie is a delight to work with. She will support you, so you can do what you do best.
Charles Burns, Entrepreneur, Client
Since working with Shannon, I can truly say that I now am able to focus on what matters in my business. Not only is Shannon superb at dealing with any administrative jobs or projects you may give her, she is simply outstanding at listening to any ongoing concerns or issues I have both personally and professionally.
I cannot stress enough how important and yet undervalued this amount of empathy and emotional intelligence is within the business community, she is there when you need her and never afraid to assist you, even if it isn't within a "job specification". She is the embodiment of going above and beyond in everything she does. I would recommend her... but I want her all to myself!
