About The Orchard Trust Domiciliary Care Agency

The Orchard Trust supports people in their own homes in Ruardean and the surrounding parts of Gloucestershire. We work with older adults and younger adults, including people with a learning disability, autistic people, people living with a physical disability, and people with sight or hearing loss. Much of our work is about widening what somebody can do rather than narrowing it. Support might mean help around the house, cooking together, getting to appointments, managing post and money, or being alongside somebody at college, at work or at a club until it feels manageable on their own. Where confidence grows and we are needed less, we count that as a good outcome rather than a lost visit. Communication is a skill we take seriously. Some of the people we support use speech, some use signs, symbols or a device, and some tell us what they think through how they behave. Learning a person's way of communicating comes before everything else we do. Working across a rural county takes planning. We build rotas that keep familiar people going to the same households, and we are honest about timings rather than promising what the roads will not allow. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch if you would like to talk about support.
