Support at home and out in the community

Good support is about far more than tasks. It can help with daily routines and getting ready for the day, and it can just as easily mean a lift to an appointment, a walk to the shops, a coffee with friends or getting back to a hobby that has been put on hold.

That is what Time to Thrive means to us. We look at what a good day looks like for you, then build care around your confidence, interests and independence rather than around a fixed list.

Our care services

Support can be arranged around your individual needs and routine, whether you need occasional help or regular visits throughout the week.

Care that fits around you

Care is shaped around your routines, your preferences and the things you want to keep doing. Visits are planned with you, and they can change as life changes.

Support does not stop at the front door. Many visits are spent out and about, because that is often where the things that matter most happen.

Familiar carers and local support

We carefully match carers to the people they support, considering personality, interests and care needs. Wherever possible, we aim to keep your care team small and consistent so you can build familiarity and trust.

There may be times when your usual carer is unavailable, but we will always aim for continuity and keep you informed if something changes.

Behind your care is our local Newcastle office team, available to answer questions, provide updates and help keep your care running smoothly.

Time to Thrive®

Good care should help people keep doing the things that matter to them. Time to Thrive is our approach to supporting confidence, independence and connection, whether that means getting back to a favourite group, keeping up with a hobby or simply being out in your own community again.
