Care Network operates across Blackburn with Darwen. It supports vulnerable adults of all ages to live independent lives by providing access to affordable, accessible and quality assured everyday services.

Its vision is for informed, empowered, resilient, independent and healthy individuals and communities. To achieve this it has three distinct areas of operation:

Care Network Hub – a single point of access for all, providing information and access to relevant health and wellbeing options so that people can make informed choices about their lives.  

Home Improvement Agency – providing a range of services (including a local safe trader scheme) that ensures people are safe, healthy and independent in their homes.  As the local HIA it is dedicated to helping people live in safety and with dignity at home. 

Community Connections – improving resilience of individuals and communities, through prevention and early action via a coordinated holistic approach and joined up partnership working.
