Residents and jobseekers are being invited to celebrate the opening of a new home care office in Poundbury next week. Loval care provider Agincare will officially open its new Dorchester base at 22 Peverell Avenue West, near Queen Mother Square, on Tuesday 10th March. The event will begin at 10:30am, when members of the public can tour the new premises, meet the care team and learn more about the services available to residents across Dorchester and surrounding areas.
A formal ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place at 11:30am, led by Dorchester Mayor Andy Canning alongside Agincare founder and chairman Derek Luckhurst.
From midday, the event will focus on careers in care with an open afternoon for anyone interested in joining the sector. Visitors will be able to speak with staff about available roles and take part in on-the-day interviews.
Agincare Dorchester is rated “Good” by the Care Quality Commission and has supported people in the county town for more than 20 years.
The service provides tailored support including companionship, help with daily living and 24-hour live-in care, helping people remain independent in their own homes.
The branch is led by Registered Manager Sam Jolliff, who said the new location marks an exciting milestone for the team and the local community.
