Our Cotham Team is With You Through Every Step

We provide personalised home care in Cotham and across north Bristol, with our local office team understanding the unique needs of each client. Our leadership includes Rachel James, our Head of Operations, who brings extensive training expertise, while our Registered Care Manager, Anne-Marie, started as a Care Professional with us over six years ago. Owner Andrew Wood's personal experience of supporting parents in their 90s, including his mum living with dementia, shapes our approach to delivering professional, compassionate care that blends the highest standards of personal care with genuine warmth. This same dedication carries into Cotham and the wider Bristol area, where we run popular monthly film clubs bringing together over 140 older people for entertainment and companionship. We also co-host Welcome Wednesday tea afternoons and bring the Virtual Dementia Tour Bus to the area, giving people a hands-on understanding of living with dementia, and work closely with Bristol Dementia Action Alliance, supporting their memory cafes and awareness events. Andrew brings additional expertise as a long-standing trustee of Alive!, a charity known for innovative dementia support across Bristol.
