Common questions about Laidlaw Foundation
- Is Laidlaw Foundation a licensed UK visa sponsor?
- Yes. Laidlaw Foundation in London holds a UK sponsor licence and appears on the Home Office register of licensed sponsors, where it has been listed since 2022. That means it is permitted to sponsor eligible workers from overseas, though a licence is permission to sponsor rather than a guarantee that any particular vacancy is open to sponsorship.
- What visa routes can Laidlaw Foundation sponsor?
- Laidlaw Foundation is licensed for Skilled Worker. Its licence is recorded on the register as "Worker (A rating)" — the rating reflects the Home Office's confidence in the sponsor's compliance record.
- Where is Laidlaw Foundation based?
- The register lists Laidlaw Foundation at 2 New Bailey, 6 Stanley Street, Salford, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom, M3 5GS. This is the address on the sponsor licence, which is usually the head office — a sponsored role may be based at a different site.
