Sara Wheelwright is the founder of Trusted directory services; Trusted Saskatoon and Trusted Regina. She is also the founder of the Trusted Marketing Services.

The founding story of Trusted is rooted in a desire to help others from personal experience. Sara, the Trusted Founder, arrived in Saskatchewan from the UK in 2006. With no one to recommend businesses or services to her, she struggled to find good providers for her many immediate needs. Although she spent hours Googling for the products and services her family required, she still encountered bad service and had no idea who to choose.

This was very stressful experience and she searched for something online to find local, verified businesses; something for people like her and the thousands of other newcomers that were arriving every month. People with no local knowledge or contacts, people from other parts of Canada and from all around the World...there the first seeds of Trusted were sown!
