Now and into the future. Disabled kids turn into disabled adults, and middle-aged carers turn into old carers. We help you develop a support system that’s not only tailored to your needs now, but one that will grow with you and your child (no matter their age now). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607e325bc778955a89b8a203/1618905469323-MIGQHFQEYF3WYM0K827F/Home-About-Tom-Image.png Home - Developed by someone who lives disability 24/7. TomCare is different to other disability service providers and agencies. Why? Because it was born out of the lived experience of a carer of a severely disabled child (that’s Tom on the left!). Dissatisfied with the quality and cost of services available, TomCare does things differently by meeting you personally and getting to know what makes you all tick. Only then do we tailor a range of services that perfectly meet your needs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607e325bc778955a89b8a203/1618896213900-0XVJ8YI2FZMJEWE27U08/Washing-Final.png Home - Laundry This service will pick up your washing and ironing and deliver it back to your home within 48 hours. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607e325bc778955a89b8a203/1618900882343-QJZB7NE7D2K81T3OLNC8/Wheelchair-Final.png Home - Wheelchair clean Wheelchairs can get grubby.

My name is Sarah, and I’m the founder of TomCare. I’m also the mother of Tom (that’s him on the left), who has been living with severe disabilities since birth. Having been on the difficult journey of navigating disability support systems for over 16 years, I realised that there was a need for an agency that drew on lived experience to provide a better quality of disability support service. One that recognises the huge impact that living with a disability brings. One that’s easy to navigate. One that provides high-quality support that’s tailored to your circumstances. One that includes participants in the decision-making process. And one that - ultimately - empowers carers and participants. And so TomCare was born! Our mission is to connect families with the best services so that you and your family can lead a full and enriching life.

To do this, we pay our support staff an above Award hourly rate. Because we know you have to pay well to get the very best.
