Ethicare

Ethicare is a home care agency based in Pudsey, in the Leeds 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 Pudsey office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. The agency has been registered since October 2021.

At its latest inspection, published January 2025, the CQC rated Ethicare Good, which means the CQC found the service performing well and meeting its expectations. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.

Ethicare has not published its rates and we are still collecting figures for Leeds. Across England agencies usually charge £26 to £36 an hour for visits and £1,200 to £1,750 a week for live-in care. Ask for a written price list that shows the weekend and bank holiday rates and the shortest visit they will do.
