Key2Support

Key2Support is a home care agency based in Oswaldtwistle, in the Lancashire 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 Oswaldtwistle office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for people with a learning disability or autism. The agency has been registered since July 2011.

At its latest inspection, published February 2019, the CQC rated Key2Support 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.

Key2Support has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Lancashire with a rate on record typically charge about £25 an hour and £1,675 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 262 registered home care agencies in Lancashire. Others working the same area include AFG Community East Lancashire, Carelytical Homecare Ltd and AHC Services Ltd TA Alpha Homecare Services, 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.
