Catholic Care was founded in 1863, towards the end of the industrial revolution and in the aftermath of a period of unprecedented growth in Leeds.
The Victorian era was a golden age for the city in many ways, but it wasn’t without its growing pains – which were becoming difficult to ignore. We were founded and continue to be run on Christian principles, but our services are available to all.
We care for people of all faiths or no faith at all, and our staff are not required to share our founding beliefs.
Today Catholic Care offers a very high standard of support and care through a wide range of residential and community-based services, including: Children's Residential Home; School, Children, and Family Wellbeing Service; Community projects (such as lunch groups and a baby bank); Adult Learning Disability Services; Older People's Services; and Mental Health Supported Living.
Charities pay a small fee for our service. Learn more about fees
