About Harbour Lights Community Support

We provide care at home in Whitby and across this part of North Yorkshire. We support older adults, people living with dementia, autistic adults and people with learning disabilities, people managing mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities, and younger adults. Working in a coastal and rural area means being honest about time and distance. A round that looks efficient on a spreadsheet comes apart on a wet morning on moorland roads, and it is the person waiting to be helped out of bed who pays for that. So we build schedules that survive an ordinary bad day, and we would rather take on less work than run a rota that only holds together in good weather. Isolation is a real part of what we deal with here. For a number of the people we visit, we are the only caller that day and sometimes that week. We do not treat the conversation as the part of the visit to cut short when we are running behind, and we would rather plan enough time than pretend it is optional. Our overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We ask the people we support what they think of us and act on the critical answers, which are always the more useful ones.
