About Blackpool Carers Centre

Who they are and what they do

Blackpool Carers Centre provides free information, advice and support to unpaid carers of all ages in Blackpool — from young carers to older carers. They support people who look after a family member or friend to access the help they need, plan for emergencies, and find time to rest and recharge.

How Horizons Homecare supports Blackpool Carers Centre

Many of the families we support include unpaid carers carrying significant responsibilities. Our Blackpool, Fylde & Wyre branch supports Blackpool Carers Centre through awareness activities and community partnership, helping families understand the support available locally — and when professional home care can give unpaid carers the break they need.

Our commitment

Why community involvement matters to us

Horizons Homecare is a local home care provider with branches in Blackpool and Lancaster. We believe that good care doesn't stop at the door — it is part of something wider. Our branches are involved in the communities they serve, not just as a business operating in them.

Supporting Blackpool Carers Centre is one way that reflects. The people we care for at home are often connected to organisations like this — as service users, as families, as carers — and we believe it matters that we show up for those communities too.

About us

About Horizons Homecare

Horizons Homecare is a CQC-regulated home care provider operating across Blackpool, Fylde, Wyre, Lancaster and Morecambe. We provide person-centred care at home — personal care, dementia care, companionship, medication support, end-of-life care and more — delivered by small, consistent care teams who build genuine relationships with the people they support.

Our approach is built around continuity, punctuality and kindness. We believe care should feel human — not rushed or transactional. Supporting local charities like Blackpool Carers Centre is part of that same commitment to the communities we serve.
