Founded in 1991, we have grown from being a small, community-based organisation to be one of the
leading social enterprises within Cheshire offering social care services.
Our primary aim is to enhance carers' lives. We do this in a variety of ways, mainly by offering respite or
short breaks to carers and their families.

We aim to provide a flexible and adaptable service that meets the needs of individual Carers and those they
care for. Trained Carer Support Workers go into the home to take over the Carer’s caring responsibilities.
They will undertake the tasks carried out by the Carer so long as appropriate training can be accessed. In
providing this service they may provide a personal care service for a person with care needs.
This may include support with bathing and feeding, mobility or with the administration of prescribed
medication. We may also be able to provide help with more specialist care tasks.  Our Personal Care policy
provides details of basic and specialist tasks that we are able to undertake.

In addition to the core service we have also developed specialist services.
