About

A Class Care is a home care agency based in Cambridge, providing care and support in people's own homes. It was founded by two women who had struggled to find suitable care for their parents, and it aims to help older people stay in familiar surroundings for longer. Families across the UK use its 24-hour live-in care and overnight care services.

Its carers are DBS-checked and complete structured training, with an emphasis on companionship and dignified personal care. Dementia is listed as the agency's care focus, and it supports people across several client groups, including older adults, younger adults and people with physical disabilities. The Care Quality Commission rated A Class Care Good overall in its 2020 report, with Good ratings for the Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive and Well-led key questions.
