We also help families who are looking for a carer for someone they love.

For families
Paying for care in England
If you're arranging care for someone you love, there may be help with the cost. Many families use a mix of these.
Paying privately
If savings and capital are above the council's upper limit, you'll usually arrange and pay for care yourself. This gives you full choice over who provides care and when.
You can still ask the council for a free needs assessment and advice.
Support from your local council
Your local council can assess care needs for free. If the person is eligible, a financial assessment works out how much they'll contribute. The current limits in England are:
- Over £23,250 in savings and capital: you'll usually pay the full cost.
- Between £14,250 and £23,250: you'll pay something towards the cost.
- Under £14,250: this amount is ignored, but income is still assessed.
For care in a person's own home, the value of that home is not counted.
Direct payments
If the council agrees to fund care, you can ask for the money as a direct payment. This lets you choose who provides the care, instead of using a provider the council arranges.
NHS Continuing Healthcare
If someone's needs are mainly health-related and complex, they may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which is fully funded by the NHS whatever their savings. Ask their GP, nurse or social worker about a checklist assessment.
Benefits you may be able to claim
- Attendance Allowance: for people over State Pension age who need help with personal care. It isn't means-tested.
- Personal Independence Payment (PIP): for people under State Pension age with a long-term health condition or disability.
- Carer's Allowance: for family members who spend 35 hours or more a week caring.
Talk to us
We can't give financial advice, but we're happy to explain how arranging a carer works in practice and point you to the right people for independent advice.
Ask us a questionThis is general information for England, not financial advice. Limits and benefit rules can change, so always check the latest details with your local council, GOV.UK or an independent adviser. Information last checked: November 2026.
Common questions
Frequently asked questions
For care homes and providers
How quickly can you send staff?
[Add your usual response time, e.g. "For urgent shifts we aim to confirm cover within two hours."]
Can we ask for the same staff again?
Yes. Wherever possible we send staff who already know your home, and block bookings keep the same people with you week after week.
Do you cover nights, weekends and bank holidays?
[Confirm your cover hours, e.g. "Yes, we supply staff 24 hours a day, 7 days a week."]
What checks do your staff have?
Every worker has an interview, ID check, enhanced DBS check, right to work check and references, plus up-to-date mandatory training. We check every nurse's NMC registration. See all our checks.
For families
How do I get a care needs assessment?
Contact your local council's adult social care team. The assessment is free, and anyone who appears to need care is entitled to one, whatever their finances.
Can direct payments be used to pay for a carer?
Yes. Direct payments are designed to give you choice over who provides care. Talk to us and we'll explain how it works.

Privacy
How we look after your information
This policy explains what personal information Adhore Care collects, why we collect it, how long we keep it and the choices you have. We have written it in plain English; if anything is unclear, please ask us.
Last updated: 1 November 2026
Who we are
Adhore Care is a care staffing agency run by Aderonke Bademosi. For data protection law, Aderonke Bademosi (trading as Adhore Care) is the "data controller": the person responsible for deciding how your information is used and for keeping it safe.
- Email: [email protected]
Who this policy covers
- Care homes, care providers and families who contact us or book staff.
- Carers, nurses and support workers who apply to work with us or work through us.
- Anyone who visits this website.
What we collect
If you send us an enquiry
Your name, the organisation you work for (if any), phone number, email address, town or postcode, the kind of help you need, when you need it, and anything you choose to write in your message.
If you apply to work with us
Your name, phone number, email address, town or postcode, the role you are applying for, your availability, whether you drive, your work history and experience, your CV, and your NMC PIN if you are a nurse.
If we go on to offer you work, we will also collect what we need to employ you safely and legally. This includes proof of your identity and right to work in the UK, references, an enhanced DBS check, training certificates, bank and tax details, and emergency contact details. We will tell you about each of these at the time.
Sensitive information
Some of this information is especially sensitive, such as criminal record checks and any health information you tell us about so we can support you at work. We only collect it where the law allows it for employment and safeguarding, we limit who can see it, and we never use it for anything else.
When you visit the website
We do not use tracking or advertising cookies. Our website host may keep basic technical records, such as your IP address, to keep the site secure. See our cookie information for more.
Why we use your information, and our legal reasons
- To answer your enquiry and arrange staff, because you asked us to, and to take steps towards an agreement with you.
- To consider your job application, which is a step towards offering you work.
- To carry out safety and legal checks (right to work, DBS, NMC registration, references), because the law requires them and they protect the people you would care for.
- To place you in work, pay you and keep records, because this is needed for your contract with us and for our legal duties, including tax.
- To run and improve our business, such as keeping records of what was agreed, where this is in our legitimate interests and does not override your rights.
We do not sell your information, and we do not send you marketing unless you have asked us to.
Who we share it with
- Care homes and care providers: if you work through us, we share the details they need to book you safely, such as your name, role, checks and training. We will tell you before we put you forward.
- Organisations that run checks: the Disclosure and Barring Service, the Nursing and Midwifery Council register, and your referees.
- Our service providers: the companies that host this website and run our email. They only use your information to provide their service to us.
- Payroll, accountants, HMRC and our insurers, where needed to pay you and meet our legal duties.
- Authorities, such as the police or a local authority safeguarding team, where the law requires it or someone is at risk of harm.
Sending information outside the UK
Some of our service providers may store or process information outside the UK. Where they do, we make sure there are proper legal safeguards in place, such as UK-approved contract terms.
How long we keep it
- Enquiries: up to 2 years after our last contact, unless you become a client.
- Unsuccessful job applications: 6 months after we tell you our decision, unless you ask us to keep your details for future roles.
- Workers and clients: for as long as you work with us, then up to 6 years afterwards, which is how long we may need records for tax and legal claims.
- Right to work records: 2 years after you stop working with us, as the Home Office advises.
After that we delete or securely destroy it.
Keeping it safe
We keep your information in secure, password-protected systems, limit who can see it, and only share it as described above.
Your rights
You have the right to:
- ask for a copy of the information we hold about you;
- ask us to correct anything that is wrong or incomplete;
- ask us to delete your information, or to stop or limit how we use it;
- object to us using your information for our legitimate interests;
- ask us to send your information to you or another organisation in a common format;
- withdraw your consent at any time, where we rely on it.
Some rights depend on our reason for using your information, and we may need to keep certain records by law. To use any of these rights, email [email protected]. We will reply within one month.
Complaints
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, please tell us first so we can put it right. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's data protection regulator: ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint, or call 0303 123 1113.

What cookies are
Cookies are small files that a website saves in your browser. Some are needed for a site to work; others track what you do so you can be shown adverts. Websites can also save small settings in your browser in a similar way.
What this website uses
- Your accessibility settings. If you change the text size or turn on high contrast, your browser remembers that choice so you do not have to set it again on every page. It stays on your device; we cannot see it. You can clear it by pressing A and turning high contrast off, or by clearing your browser's site data.
- Security cookies from our website host. Our host may set a small cookie to protect the site from attacks and spam. It does not track you.
- Fonts. The lettering on this site is loaded from Google Fonts, which means your browser connects to Google to download it. Google says it does not set cookies for this.
All of these are needed for the website, or for a feature you have chosen to use, so the law does not require us to ask for your consent first.
What we do not use
No advertising cookies, no social media tracking and no visitor-tracking tools such as Google Analytics. If we ever add any, we will update this page and ask for your permission before they are used.
