About Us

Westmorland Homecare in Kendal provides care and support to people in their own homes across the surrounding area. The people we work with include older people, younger adults, people living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities, autistic adults, people managing mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities and people with sight or hearing loss.

We build support around relationships rather than tasks. Short calls in and out of the door do not suit most of the people who come to us, so our visits are long enough to do things properly and to have a conversation while doing them. Company is often the part that makes the biggest difference, and it is not an extra.

This is a rural area with real distances between houses, so we keep our teams local and build rotas that are honest about travel rather than ones that look efficient on paper and leave people waiting.

Matching matters. We think carefully about who visits whom, taking account of interests and temperament as well as the practical help needed, and we keep the same small team with each person.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. We are proud of that and clear that it describes how we were found on particular days rather than a permanent state of affairs, so we keep working at it.

Please get in touch if you would like to talk things through.
