Who we are
About Unique Minds
Our Background
Learning Solutions
Encouraged, guided and supported in her efforts by her husband Ken, assistants were hired to fill a growing demand for her services. As the business grew, specialists in various academic disciplines joined the team and Ken joined full time. In 2004 the business was incorporated and a few years later was relocated from the family home and a learning centre was established.
The company continues to be owned by the Wilson family with directors Christopher and Kelvin Wilson now assuming major responsibilities. Unique Minds is most proud of its professional staff from various disciplines and who form the backbone and success of Unique Minds.
