About Leading Care

Leading Care Lancashire supports people across Preston and the surrounding area in their own homes. We plan support around the way somebody already lives rather than around a standard package, and we keep the same carers with the same people wherever the rota allows. We support older people with the everyday tasks that have become harder, and people living with dementia, where a familiar carer and an unhurried pace matter more than anything written down. We work with adults who have a learning disability and with autistic adults, usually with an emphasis on building confidence rather than taking tasks away from people. We also support people living with a physical disability, where good support is largely about making daily life workable again, and younger adults, whose priorities are usually about getting on with ordinary life. Continuity is what makes home care work. A carer who knows somebody well notices the untouched meal or the unsteady walk that turns out to be the first sign of a problem. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We treat that as the standard to hold. If you are considering care at home in this area, ring us and we will be straight with you.
