About Us
We provide care in people's own homes in Worthing, Arundel and the surrounding part of West Sussex.
Our work is mainly with adults who have a learning disability and autistic adults, with people who have physical disabilities and with people living with sight or hearing loss.
For many of the people we support, this is less about personal care and more about the scaffolding of an ordinary life. Help with cooking, shopping and running a household. Somebody alongside you at an appointment or in a place that would otherwise be too much. Support to keep a job or a course going. Somebody who turns up reliably and takes your plans seriously.
Where somebody wants to take on more for themselves, our job is to step back at the right pace and stay near enough to help if it does not go as hoped. For autistic people especially, the practical details do most of the work. Who is coming and when. What will happen and in what order. How much notice there is before anything changes.
Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch if you would like to talk about support at home.
