We provide compassionate and personalised dementia care in Starbeck that adapts to each individual. No two journeys with dementia are the same, which is why our relationship-led approach is based on your loved one’s unique needs, preferences, and pace. Our Care Professionals complete City & Guilds-Assured Dementia Training, so you can be confident in their knowledge and empathy. We offer a minimum of one-hour visits and operate a “No Uniform” policy to help clients feel more relaxed and at ease. Each Care Professional is handpicked and matched carefully to ensure a genuine, friendly connection that helps build trust and consistency over time.

Compassionate support for complex behaviours
We work to understand your loved one's world so we can join them in it - this helps us keep them safe and calm, provide stimulating activities, and effectively soothe challenging and complex behaviours.

Staying socially and physically active is essential for people living with dementia, and our Care Professionals help clients in Starbeck enjoy just that. We regularly support visits to Belmont Park, local cafés, or nearby dementia-friendly events, offering gentle stimulation and joyful interaction. Many of our clients enjoy trips to Harrogate’s Valley Gardens or the Stray, where familiar outdoor spaces often evoke positive memories. We also provide support for indoor hobbies, local coffee mornings, or simply a safe, friendly walk around Starbeck’s neighbourhood, helping clients feel connected to the place they call home.
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. Sheena’s “Mum & Dad Test” ensures that every Care Professional is someone she’d trust with her own parents. Our office team, including Karen, our friendly Client Care Coordinator, and Luke, our experienced Head of Care, is always available to provide support, advice, and reassurance. 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. Our commitment to dementia awareness in Starbeck goes far beyond individual care. 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. Through these initiatives and our regular free workshops, we’re helping to build a kinder, more dementia-friendly community in Starbeck and beyond.
