Here's our amazing Honora Doyle, collecting the recent Dun Laoghaire Rathdown Chamber Social Enterprise 2025 award!

We are so proud of this award.

We've worked hard to build our co-op up, to support older adults to keep doing what matters to them, and to create great jobs for carers.

We are looking forward to growing more teams in and supporting more people to age successfully at home.

Well done to the entire Great Care Co-op team! ๐Ÿ’œ

Feature on RTร‰ Brainstorm on how worker co-ops could unlock some cricital issues in home care today. Thanks Ger Doyle TU Dublin / OT Baile รtha Cliath for working with The Great Care Co-op Ireland on this peice or research.

There is no one size fits all solution to Ireland's needs. This research shows that in care not only finacially viable but also socially good business models and worthy of investment as part of the home care landscape in Ireland. Rethink Ireland

Great care isn't just a set of actions or tasks.

One of our carers recently sat down with a client who wanted to chat all things history, a passion subject of theirs. ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒŽ

It was a chance for them to share their passions, explore days gone by, and simply chat about things that didn't revolve around the present day.

And our carer learned a lot!

Every day can be a school day, in the best way, with the right care.

We aren't just a task-orientated care group, moving from one job to the next without cause or care for what the client truly needs.

We proactively judge ๐‘กโ„Ž๐‘’๐‘–๐‘Ÿ needs, adapting and responding to what works best for them in that moment.

A small difference in the carer mindset, but a huge difference in a person's home.
