The Care Trust

The Care Trust is a home care agency based in Liverpool, in the Sefton 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 Liverpool 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 part of Mrs Rachel Joan Brunton, which has 2 branches in England. The agency has been registered since May 2021.

At its latest inspection, published August 2022, the CQC rated The Care Trust 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.
