Mend Care

Mend Care is a home care agency based in Wisbech, in the Cambridgeshire 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 Wisbech 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, people with a learning disability or autism and people with mental health needs. The agency has been registered since July 2023.

Mend Care 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.

Mend Care has not published its rates and we are still collecting figures for Cambridgeshire. Across England agencies usually charge £26 to £36 an hour for visits and £1,200 to £1,750 a week for live-in care.
