Fifteen years, one promise
We've grown slowly and on purpose — one family telling the next. Here's the road from a kitchen-table idea to a team of forty.
Built the opposite of what we saw
Rushed visits, rotating strangers, a stopwatch on the doorstep — we'd lived it. Alderas was our answer: fewer clients per carer, more time, and a real person always reachable.
A timeline
Alderas begins after our founders watch their own parents receive care that felt rushed. The idea: give carers the time to care properly.
Word of mouth grows a small, hand-picked team. We set the rule we still keep — the same familiar faces, every visit.
We pass independent inspection and formalise training, safeguarding and medication practice across the team.
We add round-the-clock live-in care and planned respite, so family carers can finally rest without worry.
A milestone that still means the most — a thousand homes trusting us with the people they love.
Rated 4.9 by families and shortlisted for a regional care award, while staying deliberately small and local.
40+ trained carers, 12,000 visits a year, and the same unhurried promise we started with.
