About Gift Support Services

Gift Support provides care to people in their own homes across Ipswich and the surrounding parts of Suffolk. We work with older people and younger adults, with people living with dementia, with people managing mental health conditions and with people who have physical disabilities. Home care is largely a trade in small reliabilities. Arriving when we said we would. Knowing which neighbour holds the spare key. Remembering that somebody prefers to wash before breakfast rather than after, or takes their tablets with juice rather than water. None of that reads impressively, and all of it decides whether support feels like help or like an intrusion. Our carers assist with personal care, medication, meals, household tasks and getting out of the house, and we build the visits around the day a person already has rather than the other way about. We keep the group of carers going to each household small, because familiarity is both a comfort and a safeguard. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission and have not yet been given an overall rating. We would rather say that plainly, and we welcome questions about how we recruit, train and supervise the people we send into your home.
