Astar1 Care Agency Limited

Astar1 Care Agency Limited is a home care agency based in Peterborough, in the Cambridgeshire council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 6 miles of its Peterborough office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, people living with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. It is run by Astar1 Care Agency. The agency has been registered since January 2023.

Astar1 Care Agency Limited has not yet received a CQC rating. This is normal for a newly registered agency; the CQC usually inspects within its first year or so.

Astar1 Care Agency Limited has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Cambridgeshire with a rate on record typically charge about £28 an hour and £1,563 a week for live-in care, so expect a figure in that range and ask for a written price list that shows weekend and bank holiday rates.

There are 134 registered home care agencies in Cambridgeshire.
