Cherishers Ltd

Cherishers Ltd is a home care agency based in Rugeley, in the Staffordshire 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 Rugeley 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 a learning disability or autism and people with mental health needs. It is run by Banya Family Placement Agency. The agency has been registered since February 2021.

Cherishers Ltd 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.
