Gill was a legal executive who didn’t get enough fulfilment in her job. At the age of 31, she co-founded a housework and shopping service for elderly people, to help them stay as independent as possible. The business charges a higher rate for services to young professionals and companies in order to provide the same services at a very affordable rate to elderly people.
