Here in Upper Gornal, our dementia care services are personalised to support each person’s unique journey. Many of our clients live with dementia, and we understand that no two experiences are the same. Our Care Professionals provide tailored support that adapts as needs change, whether that’s helping with daily tasks or providing more comprehensive care. We’re proud of our CQC ‘Outstanding’ rating and our City & Guilds-Assured Dementia Training, which sets us apart. With one-hour minimum visits and a strong focus on consistency, we match clients with Care Professionals who really get them – it’s what we call our personal matching process, and it makes all the difference.
Personalised dementia care that starts with listening
Your situation is unique – your care should be too. We match our Care Professionals based on their dementia training, interests and personality, so care is always tailored to you.
20 years of trusted experience
We exceed UK regulatory standards, rank highly on Homecare.co.uk, and our qualified Care Professionals are trained to the highest standard so you can have complete peace of mind.
City & Guilds Assured dementia training
Our programme was created exclusively for Home Instead, and developed alongside key dementia specialists. We focus on caring not just for the condition, but for the person behind it.
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.

We understand that changes in routine can be particularly challenging, which is why our Care Professionals work to establish consistent patterns that provide reassurance and stability.

Our Care Professionals become a friendly, familiar presence in clients’ lives throughout Upper Gornal and the surrounding areas. We might pop out for a morning stroll through Himley Park, help tend to a beloved garden, or accompany clients to our memory café at The Seven Stars in nearby Sedgley. For those who enjoy a bit of local history, we can arrange visits to the Black Country Living Museum, where familiar sights might spark wonderful conversations about days gone by. These meaningful connections to the local community are vital – they help maintain independence and create joyful moments that brighten each day.
We are led by Julie Williams, a registered nurse with over 30 years of healthcare experience, who co-founded Home Instead Dudley and Sandwell South with her husband Ian in 2012. Our Care Professionals receive specialist dementia training that goes beyond the basics, covering everything from communication techniques to understanding behavioural changes at different stages. Our office is in Tipton, making it easy for families to pop in for a chat or a cuppa when they need advice or reassurance. We’re not just care providers; we’re your neighbours who understand the local area and the specific needs of our community. Our connections within the local dementia community run deep, with active participation in the Dudley Dementia Friendly Forum, where we work alongside other organisations committed to making a difference. Twice monthly, we host popular memory cafés – one at the Arch Tea Rooms in Netherton and another at The Seven Stars in Sedgley – creating safe spaces for socialising and activity. We’re particularly proud of our involvement with Tipton Chatty Café on the first Friday of each month, which brings people together for meaningful conversations and helps combat loneliness. Our team also regularly supports the Alzheimer’s Café at Sedgley Community Centre, offering families practical advice and emotional support in a relaxed environment.
We adapt our services to fit your life, delivering compassionate, consistent, and attentive care, enabling you to thrive in your home and community.
