We provide a high quality affordable home care service – a service that goes beyond simply meeting basic needs, enabling the people we serve to live well at home.
We are an ethical, not-for-profit service and our vision is for everyone receiving and delivering care – to work together cooperatively for their mutual benefit and well-being. Our approach gives our user members choice and control, respects their dignity and gives them opportunities to access the things that make their life worth living.
If you are looking for a care provider that will put your needs first, which offers affordable quality, and is locally focussed, contact us to find out more about how we can help.
We are registered with the Care Quality Commission and are proud to say that we are rated as GOOD across all five areas: Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive and Well-led.
We’ve Been Chosen as a ‘Local Cause’ by the Co-op
We’re delighted to report that we have recently been chosen by The Co-op Local Community Fund as a ‘Local Cause’ that Co-op Members can choose to support. Not only is this a great example of mutual support across the broader cooperative movement, but for us it’s a great opportunity to boost our profile and make more people across the region aware of us and the work we are doing.

As part of the awareness raising work that we are doing with the Co-op as part of this programme, we are inviting all of our members and supporters to get involved by downloading the Co-op app, and signing up as a member through the app by using our unique link. In this way they’ll be able to track our supporters and each person that follows the link increases the amount of financial support that we receive from the Co-op. Please support us, and our fellow cooperative, by following the link.
We’ve Extended Our Reach
As a response to the enquiries we’ve been receiving, both from people who want to work with us and from people who want to use our services, we’ve taken the decision to extend our geographical reach. Originally focussed in the Colne Valley (as our name implies), demand led us to offer a service in and around Meltham a couple of years or so ago. And now we’ve taking a further step to broaden our reach.
We’ve now open to enquiries from people based in the Holme Valley (in and around Holmfirth, Netherthong, Honley, New Mill, etc.), as well as from various parts of Huddersfield, and even further afield. And we’re actively working to respond to interest in our service from communities outside of our traditional area.
“… support that is locally-based, ethical and built on mutual respect.”
