Yesterday, we were proud to welcome members of the local community to celebrate the grand opening of our new office in Peverell Avenue in Poundbury.

We were delighted to welcome representatives from Dorset Council, Dorchester Town Council, The Winterbourne Hospital, and the Duchy of Cornwall Estate to mark the occasion.

A special thank you to Cllr Andy Canning, Mayor of Dorchester, and Mayoress Mel Lane for cutting the ribbon alongside Agincare Founder and Chairman Derek Luckhurst, Group CEO Raina Summerson, and Sam Mayes, Managing Director of Home Care and Live-in Care.

Thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate this milestone.

💙 A Massive Thank You to Our Incredible Carers 💙

Agincare Dorchester would like to say a huge THANK YOU to every single care worker who has braved the extreme weather over the past few days.

With severe flooding across Dorchester and surrounding villages, our team went above and beyond - some even leaving their cars behind to walk through floodwater.

All to ensure that every one of our service users received their visits.

Some of you were left stranded for hours and unable to get home, yet you still showed up with compassion, professionalism, and determination.

Your dedication truly shines through. You are real-life superheroes, and we could not be prouder of you. 🌟

From all of us at Agincare Dorchester - thank you!

Huge congratulations to Hazel, our Dorchester Care Worker, for being Employee of the Month (December) 🎉👏

Hazel is always cheerful and provides fantastic care to all of her service users. Thank you, Hazel, for everything you do — we’re so proud to have you on the team 💙✨
