Doncaster Community Support

Doncaster Community Support is a home care agency based in Doncaster, 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 Doncaster office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people and people with a learning disability or autism. It is part of Royal Mencap Society, which has 36 branches in England. The agency has been registered since December 2011.

Doncaster Community Support 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.
