Objectives

Crossroads Care Gloucestershire is a registered Charity that has been providing vital respite breaks to unpaid Carers in the County for over 30 years. Our core purpose is to improve the quality of life of unpaid Carers and the people for whom they care by providing high quality care services that meet individual’s needs and support their health and well-being.

We do this by offering a range of care services to enable them to take a break from their caring responsibilities, with the peace of mind that comes from the knowledge that the person with care needs is in the trustworthy, reliable and professionally trained hands of our Carer Support Workers.

Activities

Our services operate across Stroud, Tewkesbury, Cheltenham, Cotswold and Gloucester Local Authority areas and include:

funded respite breaks for carers provided through our partnership with People Plus and Gloucestershire County Council
our Out & About service which provides a varied range of outings and trips six days of the week for carers and the person with care needs
Day clubs that give people the opportunity to have time out of their home socialising with others in a supported and caring environment. It also provides the opportunity of a break for their carer.
a variety of self-funded respite packages that offer extended time away from the caring responsibility.
