Our Story

Kate and Catherine met in 2023 after unexpectedly meeting through a client who needed care at home. They very quickly realised that they worked well together and had the same views about how care should be delivered to all clients. After discussing creating a company, they did just that and K & C Home Care Ltd was born in 2024.

Kate and Catherine are big believers in maintaining independence and dignity and strive to deliver the best care and in the way the client would like it. All clients are at the forefront of their care and its delivery.

Based in Swindon, we serve our local community with pride, building lasting relationships with our clients and their families. We believe that everyone deserves to receive care in the comfort of their own home, surrounded by familiar surroundings and the people they love.
