Vine Social Care

Vine Social Care is a home care agency based in Farnborough, in the Hampshire 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 Farnborough 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 learning disability or autism and people with mental health needs. It is run by Vine Social Care Agency. The agency has been registered since August 2016.

At its latest inspection, published July 2021, the CQC rated Vine Social 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.

Vine Social Care has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Hampshire with a rate on record typically charge about £30 an hour and £1,500 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 331 registered home care agencies in Hampshire. Others working the same area include Home Instead Farnborough, Farnham and Fleet, Caremark Surrey Heath & Rushmoor and Catto Homecare, 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.
