We know community care services

For over 60 years, Reed has been proud and privileged to provide person-centred direct care and support services to vulnerable adults, children, young people, and families in the community.

We work with public bodies, privately funded individuals and organisations. So, if you are looking to purchase services, or hire private carers for yourself or loved ones, we provide a range of services to suit your needs.

As a registered Care Quality Commission provider, we are committed to delivering the best possible outcomes for individuals who wish to remain at home and safely access services in their local community.

Our services are available 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and we have community care hubs based in Cambridge, Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, and London.

With an extensive team of dedicated community care workers, our friendly, local team of registered care managers, consultants, and co-ordinators work in partnership with you to find a solution and meet your aspirations to achieve your individual goals.

We will work in collaboration with you and other parties to ensure that you are matched with staff who can provide the best level of community care and support for vulnerable adults, children, young people, and families.

All our services enable individuals to fulfil their potential and lead a meaningful and independent life with choice and control. We support with and focus on what individuals can do for themselves but also provide the tools for them to grow and develop new skills and abilities.

Our community care professionals can provide services across multiple care needs, including those with learning disabilities and autism, specialist and complex care, mental health support, outreach and respite services, and specialist care services for children and young people.
