Heywood Carers

Heywood Carers is a home care agency based in Cranleigh, in the Surrey 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 Cranleigh office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people. The agency has been registered since October 2015.

At its latest inspection, published April 2020, the CQC rated Heywood Carers 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.

Heywood Carers has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Surrey with a rate on record typically charge about £29.50 an hour and £1,500 a week for live-in care, so expect a figure in that range and ask for a written price list that shows weekend and bank holiday rates.

There are 285 registered home care agencies in Surrey. Others working the same area include Haslemere Homecare Ltd, Home Instead Senior Care Godalming and SD Care Agency, 3 of which have a rate on record. A self-employed carer found through PrimeCarers charges £18 to £25 an hour, and live-in care typically about £1,120 a week across England.
