About

Abney & Baker (Bath) Ltd is a home care agency that provides care and support in people's own homes. Its office is in Melksham, Wiltshire. The agency supports adults with dementia, older people, younger adults, people with physical disabilities, and people with substance misuse needs or eating disorders, with dementia as its care focus.

Its approach is preventative, starting support early to build strength, reduce risks and help people stay safely at home.

Work on strength and balance aims to reduce falls and injuries. The Care Quality Commission rates the agency Good overall, with Good ratings for all five key questions (report published 2025).
