About Age UK & Hove
We at Age UK Brighton & Hove are proud to provide compassionate home care across Brighton and the surrounding Brighton and Hove community, supporting older people and younger adults to live well within the comfort of their own homes. Operating throughout the BN postcode area, our team travels across Brighton and Hove to bring personalised support directly to those who need it. By delivering care in familiar surroundings, we help residents maintain the routines, relationships, and independence that matter most to them, whilst offering families the reassurance that a trusted local team is close at hand. Our specialisms span older person care, home care, and support for younger adults, which means we tailor every care plan to the individual rather than applying a one size approach. For some, this might mean a friendly visit to help with morning routines, medication, or preparing a meal. For others, it involves more comprehensive daily support to manage longer term conditions or the challenges that can come with age. Whatever the need, our aim is the same: to promote dignity, choice, and genuine wellbeing. Families tell us that knowing a familiar carer is arriving each day brings enormous peace of mind, and we work hard to build those trusted relationships from the very first visit. We are also pleased to be rated Good by the Care Quality Commission across every domain assessed at our most recent inspection in July 2022, including Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well-led. This consistent rating reflects the standards we hold ourselves to every day and the professionalism of the team who deliver care on the ground. It is an independent reassurance that the values we speak about are matched by the quality of care we provide. Choosing home care for a loved one is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and we understand the questions and emotions that come with it. If you are exploring options in Brighton and would like to learn more about how we can support your family, we warmly invite you to get in touch. We are here to listen, to answer your questions, and to help you find the right path forward with confidence and care.
