Based within Tameside, our local service is responsible for providing high quality and person centred support to older adults with extra care needs. The service is part of Creative Support, a national not-for-profit organization dedicated to providing focused and responsive care to individuals with a wide range of care requirements.

Our purpose built local staff team is both experienced and professional and we wish to build upon this with dedicated, warm and hard working individuals who can help us to provide the best level of personal and housing related support that we can to the individuals that we care for. Working with both the staff team and clients you will promote a focus on maintaining the independence and dignity of our service users and ensure that they live inclusive lives within the local community.
