Step Up Training and Care Ltd

Step Up Training and Care Ltd is a home care agency based in Redditch, in the Worcestershire 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 Redditch 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 and people with a sensory impairment. It is run by Step Up Training and Care. The agency has been registered since February 2023.

Step Up Training and Care Ltd 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.
