About Forest Gate

We provide care at home for people in Forest Gate and the surrounding parts of Newham. We take on a wide range of needs, and each arrangement begins with a proper conversation about what the person wants their day to look like rather than with a standard package. For older people we help with personal care, medication, meals, housework, shopping and getting out and about, and we notice and raise the changes that are easy to overlook. For people living with dementia we keep the same care workers visiting, follow the routine the household already has and avoid moving things about in a home that is known by heart. We support adults with mental health needs, where reliability and respect do most of the good, and people with a physical disability who need help to move safely and manage at home. Where there is sight or hearing loss we adapt how we communicate and always say who we are. We also support people living with eating disorders and people whose lives have been affected by alcohol or drug dependency. Both ask for consistency and no moralising, and we work alongside the health professionals involved. Younger adults are supported around their own commitments. Our staff reflect the area we work in and we match care workers to households sensibly. Please ring us to talk it through.
