Our support is tailored to your individual needs, helping you maintain your independence, confidence and choice.

Whether you enjoy meeting other people, attending a social group, visiting a library, going shopping, going for coffee, attending a church or community group, visiting a garden centre or simply getting out and about, we can provide support to help you do this.
We will work with you to identify opportunities that are suitable for your interests, abilities and support needs.

There are many fantastic activities, groups and services available across Burton upon Trent, Derby and the surrounding areas.
Angeli Care Services does not organise or run these activities. They are provided independently by community organisations, groups and venues.
Our role is to support individuals who wish to attend these activities and help them access their local community safely and confidently.

We understand that getting out into the community isn’t always easy.
You may need support with mobility, communication, confidence, personal care, medication, transport or simply having someone with you.
Our experienced care team can provide support that is tailored to your individual needs.
Before providing support, we will discuss your requirements with you and, where appropriate, your family or other relevant professionals. We will then develop a person-centred support plan based around your choices, goals and preferences.
Our support may be provided on a one-to-one basis, allowing you to enjoy your chosen activity with the level of support you require.
Community Support isn’t about doing everything for you.
Where possible, we encourage and enable individuals to do things for themselves, while providing the appropriate level of assistance when needed.
Our goal is to help you:
– Maintain your independence
– Build your confidence
– Stay socially connected
– Make your own choices
– Access your local community
– Continue doing the things you enjoy
We believe good care is about more than meeting someone’s basic needs. It’s about helping people live the life they want.
That might mean supporting someone to attend their favourite community group, meeting a friend for coffee, going shopping, visiting a library, attending a place of worship, enjoying a hobby or simply getting out of the house for some fresh air.
Whatever matters to you, we’ll work with you to understand how we can support you to achieve it.
