Local knowledge across Tamworth

Tamworth is a historic market town in the south east of Staffordshire, once the ancient capital of the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Mercia and still watched over by the Norman motte and bailey of Tamworth Castle beside the River Tame. Today the town is home to around 77,000 people spread across established communities such as Amington, Glascote, Wilnecote, Bolehall, Stonydelph, Belgrave, Dosthill, Kettlebrook and Two Gates, along with nearby villages like Fazeley and Hopwas. Care needs vary from busy estates on the edge of town to quieter riverside streets near the castle grounds, and we tailor support to the person and the place rather than offering a one size fits all service.

Most of Tamworth sits within the B77, B78 and B79 postcode areas, and we arrange care right across them. We regularly support people returning home after a stay at Sir Robert Peel Community Hospital in Mile Oak, which is part of University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust and runs the local minor injuries unit, rehabilitation wards and older people's services. Some families we help are discharged from larger acute hospitals a little further afield before coming back to Tamworth. The first weeks at home matter, so we help with medication routines, mobility and rehabilitation support and stay in close contact with families and community teams.

Adult social care in the area is overseen by Staffordshire County Council, while Tamworth Borough Council looks after more local services such as housing and the leisure centre. If you think a relative may qualify for help with funding, you can ask the county 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.
