About High Peak Carers
We are High Peak Carers, and we support adults in their own homes in Buxton and across the High Peak. Our visits range from a single short call each day through to several hours of support, arranged to fit the person's routine rather than our convenience. We help older people with washing and dressing, medication, meals, shopping and the household jobs that become harder with time. We support adults living with dementia, where familiar faces arriving at predictable times do more good than anything else we can offer. We also support adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults, where predictable routines and clear information given in good time matter enormously, people living with mental ill health, people with physical disabilities and younger adults who want help that steps back as they take on more themselves. This is a hilly, rural area with scattered villages, so we plan our rounds around geography and the weather as well as need, and if we are delayed we ring rather than leaving somebody watching the window. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch for an unhurried conversation about support at home.
