Home care in Clevedon by the Severn
Clevedon is a Victorian seaside town on the Severn estuary, with its pier, promenade and hilly streets, and a large number of older residents. Families searching for home care in Clevedon are supporting parents in the streets around Hill Road and the seafront, in East Clevedon and Walton St Mary, in the newer estates to the south, and in nearby villages such as Kenn, Kingston Seymour, Yatton and Tickenham. Clevedon's hills are steep in places. A carer who lives in helps your relative stay safe and keep getting out.
We also arrange care in Nailsea, Portishead, Weston Super Mare, Bristol and Clifton.
Weston General, Bristol and Clevedon Community Hospital
Clevedon Community Hospital provides a minor injuries unit and community services, but emergencies go to Weston General, Southmead or the Bristol Royal Infirmary, depending on the time of day and the emergency. A live-in carer in Clevedon can be ready for your relative's discharge, whichever hospital they are in.
North Somerset Council in Clevedon
Clevedon is covered by North Somerset Council, a unitary authority separate from Somerset Council and Bristol City Council. It runs adult social care, carries out free needs assessments and carer's assessments, and may contribute to care depending on savings. NHS Continuing Healthcare is assessed separately where needs are mainly health-related, and Attendance Allowance is available whatever your relative's income.
The pier, Poet's Walk and the Marine Lake
Clevedon's Grade I listed pier, the seafront gardens, the Marine Lake and Poet's Walk around the headland are favourite outings for older residents, and the Curzon cinema is one of the oldest in the country. A carer can help your relative keep enjoying them, along with church, Hill Road's shops and time with friends. You choose your carer from matched profiles before anything is agreed.

Funding & regulation
Paying for care in England
Home care is regulated and funded differently in each nation, so the route is not the same everywhere. Here is how it works where you live.
Read our full funding guide →Who regulates care here
Home care in England is regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). They inspect and register home care services to make sure standards are met.
Where funding comes from
Apply through your local authority's adult social care team. Means-tested local authority funding and NHS Continuing Healthcare are both available depending on assessed need.
How we fit in
Live-in Care Direct is an introductory agency. We introduce self-employed carers to families rather than employing them, so you contract directly with your carer and keep the choice of who provides your care.
