About U&I

U and I is a home care agency in Leicester, supporting adults in their own homes across the area. We work with older people and with younger adults. What happens on a visit depends entirely on the person. For some it is help to wash, dress and get the day started, which is enough to make the rest of the day possible. For others it is several calls covering medication, meals, help to move safely about the house, shopping and getting to appointments. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission and have not yet been given an overall rating. We prefer to say that openly and would encourage anyone considering us to meet the manager and ask for references. Leicester is a city of many communities and language, food and faith are taken seriously here because they are part of who somebody is. Where we can, we match care workers and the people they visit thoughtfully. Support is agreed with the person, written in plain language and revisited as circumstances change. If you are arranging support at home locally, please get in touch.
