About Us

We at Tender Glove Healthcare are proud to provide compassionate home care across Wingate and the surrounding communities of County Durham, supporting people to live safely and comfortably in the place they know best: their own home.

Our roots are firmly planted in Wingate, a close knit town in the east of County Durham within the TS postcode area. Operating across the North East, we bring care directly to the doorsteps of those who need it, whether that is a village cottage, a family home, or a flat in town. By coming to you, we remove the upheaval of moving into residential care and instead build our support around the familiar surroundings, routines, and neighbourhoods that make a house feel like home.

The care we offer is broad and thoughtfully tailored. For older people, our team provides gentle, dignified assistance with the everyday tasks that can become harder over time, from personal care and medication support to meal preparation and companionship. Our home care visits can be arranged to suit each person's rhythm of life, offering reassurance to family members who may live further afield or who simply need a trusted partner in caring for someone they love.

For those living with dementia, we understand that consistency, patience, and familiarity are everything. Our approach focuses on preserving independence and identity, working at each person's pace and gently supporting them through daily routines in a way that reduces confusion and promotes calm. Families often tell us that knowing a kind, understanding face is visiting their loved one brings enormous peace of mind.

We also support adults living with mental health conditions, offering practical help alongside a steady, non judgemental presence. Whether that means encouraging engagement with daily activities, supporting appointments, or simply being there to listen, our aim is to help people feel understood and empowered in their own recovery and wellbeing. In addition, we care for younger adults whose needs may differ from those of older clients, providing person centred support that respects their goals, lifestyles, and aspirations for greater independence.

As a newer presence on the CQC register, Tender Glove Healthcare is currently listed as Not Yet Rated. This simply means we have not yet had our first full inspection published. We welcome the CQC process wholeheartedly and are committed to meeting and exceeding the standards families rightly expect. In the meantime, we are always happy to speak openly about our team, our training, and the way we work, so you can make an informed decision with confidence.

If you are exploring home care options in Wingate or the wider County Durham area for yourself or someone dear to you, we would be honoured to hear from you. Please get in touch to arrange a friendly, no obligation conversation about how we can help bring comfort, dignity, and reassurance into daily life at home.
