Tendring Care

Tendring Care is a home care agency based in Clacton-on-Sea, in the Essex 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 Clacton-on-Sea office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people and younger adults. It is run by Miss Claire Louise Webber. The agency has been registered since October 2013.

At its latest inspection, published January 2022, the CQC rated Tendring Care 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.
