Personalised Home Care in Harrogate and the Surrounding District
Harrogate is known for its elegant architecture, green spaces, and strong sense of community. From the tree-lined avenues of the town centre to the quieter villages of Nidderdale, it is a place where people put down roots and want to remain. Home care in Harrogate allows older adults and those living with health conditions to continue enjoying the surroundings they love, with professional support tailored to their individual needs.
Support Solutions opened its Harrogate branch in 2020, expanding from our founding office to serve families across the district. Based at The Coach House on Haywra Street, our local team provides visiting care, live-in care, dementia care, and a full range of specialist services. We are CQC regulated and committed to delivering care that is safe, effective, and built around the person, not around a schedule.
Families exploring home care in Harrogate often ask about funding. North Yorkshire Council offers a range of care funding pathways, and our team can guide you through the assessment process, explain what financial support may be available, and help you understand the options.

Meet the Harrogate Team
Our Harrogate office is located at The Coach House, Rear 15-17 Haywra Street, Harrogate, HG1 5BJ. From here, our coordination team manages all domiciliary care across the Harrogate district, ensuring every visit runs smoothly and every client receives the attention they deserve.
The branch operates under the leadership of Chantelle Allan, Registered Business Manager, who brings extensive experience in regulated care services. She is supported by Anne Muzondo, Senior Support Worker, who provides hands-on guidance to our frontline care team and ensures standards remain consistently high across every care package.
Every carer on our Harrogate team is recruited from the local area. We prioritise candidates who know the district, understand its communities, and can build lasting relationships with clients. All team members complete DBS checks, receive training that goes well beyond the Care Certificate, and benefit from regular supervision, competency reviews, and specialist upskilling in areas such as dementia and moving and handling.

What Harrogate Families Say
"Finding reliable home care in Harrogate felt overwhelming until a friend recommended Support Solutions. From the very first assessment, the team put us at ease. Mum's carer arrives at the same time each morning, and they have built a lovely bond over shared stories and walks around Valley Gardens."
"Dad lives alone in Knaresborough and was becoming increasingly isolated after losing Mum. The companionship visits from Support Solutions have transformed his week. His carer takes him to the castle grounds and the market, and he has a spring in his step we had not seen in months."
"We needed live-in care quickly after Grandma fell at home in Ripon. Support Solutions had someone in place within four days. The carer is patient, kind, and absolutely brilliant with her dementia. We feel so fortunate to have found this team."
"The night care service has been a lifeline. Mum was falling regularly during the night and we were terrified. Having a waking night carer from Support Solutions means she is safe, and the rest of the family can finally sleep without worry."

Get in Touch
Call our Harrogate office on 01423 802 773, email harrogate@supportsolutions.care, or complete the enquiry form on this page. We will listen to your situation and explain what support is available.
Free Home Assessment
One of our care coordinators will visit you at home for a free, no-obligation assessment. We take time to understand your daily routine, health needs, preferences, and personal goals.
Bespoke Care Plan
We create a detailed care plan tailored to you, covering visit times, types of support, dietary requirements, and personal preferences. Nothing is generic; every plan is written for the individual.
Meet Your Care Team

The initial assessment is completely free. We are here to help you explore the right care options for your family, with no pressure and no commitment.
Rooted in the Harrogate Community
Being part of the Harrogate community means more than having an office here. We actively work alongside local health and social care partners to ensure families receive joined-up support. Our team collaborates with Harrogate District Hospital to facilitate safe, timely discharges, helping patients return home with a proper care package already in place rather than waiting on stretched hospital resources.
We also maintain close links with local GP surgeries, district nursing teams, and adult social care at North Yorkshire Council. For families navigating the funding process, our team can explain the council's financial assessment, point you toward the right forms, and help you understand whether your loved one may be eligible for funded or part-funded care.
Harrogate is a special place to live, from the famous Valley Gardens and the Stray to the independent shops and cafes that give the town its character. Our carers are part of this community, and many of our companionship visits involve trips to local attractions, walks along the Nidderdale Greenway, or afternoon tea in Knaresborough. We believe that quality care is about enriching life, not just maintaining it.
