About Us
From humble beginnings
Unicare Devon was born out of friendship and a passion to look after the most vulnerable in our local community. Our journey began with a conversation over coffee in 2008 at Bridgette’s kitchen table. Over the following two years, John and Bridgette worked tirelessly gaining experience and training within the care sector and building the foundations to develop our domiciliary care service.
Realising a dream
In 2010 our dreams were realised and Unicare Devon was awarded its registration with the CQC. Since then, we are proud to have become one of the County’s leading care providers supporting Devon County Council and the NHS in local innovation within our sector.
Fast forward to today and Unicare Devon continues to steadily grow and support our community through a range of initiatives to reduce isolation. We are delighted to have launched a purpose-built kindness café that offers a friendly, safe place to connect with others. Our commitment to supporting the wellbeing of our clients includes accessing the community and enabling people to realise their dreams by experiencing a range of activities such as Days out, Rock climbing, holidays or simply visiting the local pub.
We’re very proud to provide an outstanding care service to our local community.
