health and social care

Community enterprises deliver a range of care services in wide Gloucestershire, from residential homes to day centres to home care services.

Community Foster Care is a multi-award winning community enterprise whose dedicated team of staff and foster carers has helped to turn around the lives of countless children and young people.  They provide an unrivalled package of care at low cost while helping to regenerate some of the county's most disadvantaged communities.

Community Support Services operates a home support service for older people utilising support through the Supporting People programme. Numbers using the service have increased every week to over 120 households by the end of 2004.
