Fellside Homecare

Fellside Homecare is a home care agency based in Kendal, in the Westmorland and Furness 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 Kendal 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 a sensory impairment. The agency has been registered since December 2023.

Fellside Homecare 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.
