About Whell Care

Whell Care provides support in people's own homes in Morpeth and across Northumberland. Our work is with older people who want to carry on living in the house they know, and with younger adults who need support to live independently. What that looks like varies. For some people it is a single morning call to help with washing and dressing and to get breakfast under way. For others it is several visits through the day covering personal care, medication, meals, laundry and a bit of company. For younger adults the emphasis is often less on doing things for people and more on making it possible for them to do things themselves. Northumberland is a large county and distances are real, so we plan travel time honestly and keep a small team around each person. That keeps visits punctual and means the face at the door is a known one. We start with a visit and an unhurried conversation at home. The plan is built around the routine that already exists rather than one we have decided on, and it is reviewed as things move on. Please ring if you would like to talk it through.
