People Matters

People Matters is a home care agency based in Leeds, 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 Leeds 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 and people with a learning disability or autism. It is run by People Matters (West Yorkshire). The agency has been registered since November 2017.

At its latest inspection, published January 2019, the CQC rated People Matters 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.

People Matters has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Leeds with a rate on record typically charge about £25.50 an hour and £1,439 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 228 registered home care agencies in Leeds. Others working the same area include Home Instead Central Leeds, Select Choice Community Support Ltd and Unity Plus Healthcare Leeds LS3 1JA, 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.
