About Oswestry

We provide care and support in people's own homes in Oswestry and the surrounding parts of Shropshire. The people we work with include older people and younger adults, people living with dementia or mental ill health, people with physical disabilities or sight and hearing loss, adults with a learning disability or who are autistic, and people dealing with an eating disorder or with problems related to alcohol or drugs. With that range of need, careful individual planning matters far more than any standard package. We meet the person first, find out what daily life actually requires, and write the plan in language they can follow. For some households that is personal care morning and evening. For others it is longer visits, help with medication, or somebody alongside a person to hold a routine together through a difficult stretch. We stay in close contact with families, GPs, community teams and social workers, because people with complicated needs tend to be let down in the gaps between organisations rather than by any single one of them. This is a rural part of the country and distances are real, so we plan rotas honestly rather than promising times we cannot keep. Keeping the same carers with the same households is something we work at, because trust takes a long while to build. Please get in touch if you would like an honest conversation about support for yourself or a relative.
