We work closely with families to adjust plans with empathy and care, from early-stage support to more involved care needs, all while preserving each person’s independence, dignity, and emotional wellbeing as much as possible.

Our Harrogate Team is With You Through Every Step

Our Starbeck care team is led by Sheena and Andrew, whose personal experience supporting loved ones through dementia inspired their deep commitment to delivering exceptional, local care.

We take the time to get to know you and your loved one, offering flexible, tailored support that can begin quickly or be planned well in advance, whenever you need us. This deep commitment carries through into our wider dementia awareness efforts across Starbeck. We actively support the Memory Café in Knaresborough, contributing to both awareness and fundraising for special activities. Every month, we partner with Everyman Cinema in Harrogate to run dementia-friendly screenings, offering families a calm and inclusive way to enjoy an afternoon out. We also host the Virtual Dementia Bus experience at our Harrogate office, giving families and local professionals an immersive understanding of dementia.
