Home Care in Barnard Castle

For over a decade, we’ve provided high-quality home care in Barnard Castle and the surrounding Teesdale villages such as Richmond and Staindrop, supporting older adults who want to live independently at home. Being local, we understand how special life here is – from weekend trips to the farmer’s market to staying connected with Barnard Castle’s close-knit community. Our trusted Care Professionals offer a wide range of personalised services, including companionship, home help and housekeeping, personal care, dementia care, respite care, and live-in care. With a CQC ‘Good’ rating and recognition as a Top 20 home care provider, we’re proud to deliver care that’s personal, compassionate, and never clinical.

From our Darlington-based office, we support many clients in Barnard Castle with a variety of home care – from a few hours of companionship each week through to live-in care. Many families come to us when a loved one is recovering after illness, managing long-term conditions like Parkinson’s or dementia, or simply needs a bit of extra support to stay safe at home. We can arrange care quickly – often within days – and because many of our Care Professionals drive, getting to Barnard Castle and surrounding villages is made much easier. Whether it’s help with shopping, personal care, medication management, or overnight support, we build care plans around what actually helps, not what sounds good on paper.

Our team has been supporting families in Barnard Castle for over a decade, building trusted relationships with local GPs, pharmacies, and community groups. Every one of our Care Professionals is thoroughly trained — not just in practical skills, but in understanding what matters to each client.  We’re a truly local company. Some of our team members have grown up here, gone to local schools, and know the area inside out. Several of our Care Professionals have supported clients in Barnard Castle for years, becoming trusted companions who families depend on – not only for care, but for friendship, conversation, and reassurance.

Barnard Castle offers wonderful resources for older adults, and we help clients stay connected to them. The Bowes Museum provides not just the galleries but a beautiful café and grounds that many of our clients enjoy visiting regularly. The town’s market days, local leisure centre, and community events all provide opportunities for social connection that our Care Professionals can facilitate. We run many local activities and clients are welcome at our Memory Lane Activity Cafe in Darlington. We’ve also helped establish Take A Seat in nearby Richmond in North Yorkshire, – a scheme encouraging businesses to offer resting points – and we’re exploring bringing similar initiatives to other market towns we serve across the region.
