Cumbria

Cumbria is a home care agency based in Carlisle, in the Cumberland council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 9 miles of its Carlisle 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 and people with mental health needs. It is run by CSG Healthcare. The agency has been registered since November 2023.

Cumbria 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.
