About Candlelight Homecare Area Office
Candlelight Homecare provides care and support to people in their own homes in the Glastonbury area and the surrounding part of Somerset. We work with older people and younger adults, people living with dementia, adults with a learning disability or autism, people managing mental health conditions or an eating disorder, people with a physical disability or with sight or hearing loss, and people dealing with alcohol or drug misuse. Supporting that range of needs means listening carefully before planning anything. Every arrangement begins with a visit and a proper conversation about what is actually difficult, what the person wants to keep doing for themselves and what would make the greatest difference to their week. From there, our support may include personal care, prompting and help with medication, preparing meals and drinks, help with moving about safely, shopping, laundry and housework, or support to get out to appointments, education or activities. Our carers are trained for the specific needs they support and supervised properly, and we keep teams consistent wherever the rota allows. Covering a rural area also means planning rounds with travel in mind, and we do that properly rather than leaving carers chasing the clock. If you are considering care at home in this area, please contact us.
