About Combined Touch Community Interest Company
We at Combined Touch Community Interest Company are proud to provide compassionate home care across South Shields and the wider South Tyneside area, supporting people to live well and safely within the place they know best: their own home. As a home care provider, we come to you. Our team travels throughout South Shields and the surrounding NE postcode communities, bringing personalised support directly to residents in familiar surroundings. This means no upheaval, no unfamiliar corridors, and no need to leave behind treasured memories, neighbours, or routines. Whether you live in a family home, a bungalow, or sheltered accommodation, our care is shaped around your environment and your way of life. Our specialisms reflect the diverse needs of the community we serve. We support older people who value their independence but appreciate a helping hand with daily living, whether that involves personal care, medication reminders, meal preparation, or simply the reassurance of a friendly, familiar face. For those living with dementia, we take a patient and understanding approach, focusing on consistency, gentle routine, and the small moments of connection that make a genuine difference to wellbeing. Our support for adults with a physical disability is centred on dignity, practical assistance, and enabling people to do the things that matter to them. We also work with younger adults, recognising that care needs are not defined by age and that every person deserves support tailored to their individual goals and lifestyle. In practice, this means families can feel confident that a loved one is receiving thoughtful, respectful care from a team that takes the time to understand each person as an individual. We know that inviting someone into your home is a significant step, and we treat that trust with the seriousness it deserves. Our commitment to quality is reflected in our most recent Care Quality Commission inspection, in which we were rated Good overall. We achieved a Good rating in every one of the five key areas the CQC assesses: Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well led. For families, this consistent standard across the board offers meaningful reassurance that the care provided is not only kind but also safe, professionally delivered, thoughtfully organised, and appropriately managed. Choosing home care is a deeply personal decision, and we understand that families often begin this journey feeling uncertain or overwhelmed. If you are exploring options for yourself or someone you love in South Shields or across South Tyneside, we would be delighted to have a warm, no obligation conversation with you about how we might help. Whatever stage you are at, please do reach out. We are here to listen, to answer your questions, and to walk alongside you as you find the right support.
