Local knowledge across Rotherham

Rotherham is a South Yorkshire market and former steel town of around a quarter of a million people, sitting on the River Don between Sheffield and Doncaster. The borough is a patchwork of distinctive communities, from the town centre around All Saints and Riverside across to Wickersley, Maltby, Wath-upon-Dearne, Rawmarsh, Dinnington, Swinton, Bramley and Kimberworth. Most of the borough falls within the S60 to S66 postcodes, and care needs vary just as much across it, from terraced streets close to the centre to the villages and countryside further out. We tailor support to the person and the place rather than offering a one size fits all service.

We regularly support people returning home after a stay at Rotherham Hospital on Moorgate Road, run by The Rotherham NHS Foundation Trust, which serves the whole borough. The first weeks back at home matter, so we help with medication routines, mobility and rehabilitation support and stay in close contact with families and community teams. Local landmarks such as Wentworth Woodhouse, the grand country house on the edge of the borough with one of the longest facades in Europe, and Clifton Park and Museum near the town centre, are part of everyday life for the people we look after, and staying connected to familiar places is often as important as the practical care itself.

Adult social care in the borough is overseen by Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council, based at Riverside House on Main Street. If you think a relative may qualify for help with funding, you can ask the council for a free care needs assessment, followed by a financial assessment. Many families we work with self-fund their care, and we are always happy to explain how the different routes work. You can read more on our paying for care guide.
