Lago Homecare is an independent, community-based provider of exceptional care at home across Teesside and North Yorkshire.

Services can range from 30 minutes up to 24-hour live-in care and can be tailored to care and support needs of varying complexities.

A service user may need help showering, getting dressed, or with other elements of their personal care. They may instead be recovering from a stay in hospital and require reablement care and support through discharge back into their home. Perhaps it is the family and loved ones with existing care responsibilities who need respite care and support to provide them with the time and space for recuperation.

Lago Homecare can also provide high quality care and support to those living with learning disabilities. This is always delivered with the service user at the heart of what they do, and with a keen focus on outcomes-based care and support.

Staff at Lago Homecare are comprehensively trained before delivering any care and support, with any service user-specific training undertaken before the care and support plan starts.

Lago Homecare is committed to fairly rewarding staff for their highly valued work and is accredited by the Living Wage Foundation as a Living Wage Employer. Valuing service users and staff equally enables a sustainable model of care and support that achieves the best outcomes.

Friendly, reliable, helpful and flexible care providers. Cannot fault Lago Homecare for the service they have offered. They have always bent over backwards to accommodate my parents' needs, including some last-minute bookings. My parents also appreciate the continuity of staff that Lago have been able
to offer: other companies offered to cover the visits with up to eight or even ten staff members, Lago have done so with two, which has helped my parents form a bond with their carers and made things much easier for my father, who has Alzheimer's.

After using Lago Homecare for the past few months I cannot praise them enough for the way they have treated me. Everyone is kind, caring and professional allowing me to recover from my surgery with dignity and enabling me to make progress at my own pace. They are also flexible enough so that my daily
routine can be adjusted when needed eg for hospital appointments. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

Job Title: Director / Nominated Individual

Joined: 2023

Before founding Lago Homecare I worked in accountancy and finance for 9 years, qualifying as a Chartered Accountant in 2019.


I developed skills and experience in that time but my real passion was in managing and leading people. I also wanted to leave work every day feeling that I was making a positive difference.


I moved into the care sector because of the influence of my grandparents on my life, and also because I believe that there is an opportunity to build a different kind of care provider - one that prioritises quality of care and their staff equally.


I have no doubt that you will receive the highest quality care and support from us. Our team is built on shared values and a commitment to excellence.


We look forward to speaking to you soon about your care and support needs.

Job Title: Registered Manager

Joined: 2024

I began my career in care in 1994 after having my first son. This was working in a local home for people living with chronic neurological conditions, people relearning what they can achieve, and adapting to uncertain futures.


As a carer, I quickly learned my strengths are formed by my values; integrity, compassion, kindness and hope. This was the start of what has now been a 30-year career, caring for and supporting people with various needs - older people, people living with dementia, people experiencing severe and enduring mental health issues, and people living with various learning disabilities.


I hold current Level 5 Diplomas in Health and Social Care and also Operations and Departmental Management. I am a dementia and sensory champion and hold a suite of mandatory and specialist care training certificates.
