Leaf Somerset

Leaf Somerset is a home care agency based in Weston-super-Mare, in the North Somerset 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 Weston-super-Mare office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. It is part of LEAF Complex Care, which has 3 branches in England. The agency has been registered since November 2022.

Leaf Somerset 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.
