About

Ella UK Limited is a home care agency based in Wigan, Greater Manchester, providing care and support in people's own homes, with a particular focus on dementia. It also supports older people, people with physical disabilities, people with mental health needs and people with learning disabilities.

Before care begins, the agency makes a free, no-obligation visit to the person's home, and its Care Manager uses this to draw up a person-centred care plan. Staff complete training before they start, and every employee has a police DBS check and references. The agency also runs a weekly activities day on Tuesdays, offering drinks, lunch and a range of activities. The Care Quality Commission rated Ella UK Outstanding overall in 2021.
