If you’re looking for support for adults with learning disabilities in London, we can help. Tiggo Care provides learning disability support for adults who want to stay in their own homes while maximising independence and connection to their local community.
We know that support for people with learning disabilities works best when it’s personal. That’s why we offer person-centred support tailored to each person’s needs, routines, and goals. We work closely with the individual, their family, and other professionals to develop a care plan that reflects what matters most to them and supports a fuller, more independent everyday life.
Our services range from weekly home care visits to full-time live-in care arrangements. Our care assistants offer practical support with everyday activities, help with physiotherapy routines, and assistance with attending appointments. Get in touch today for advice and information on how we can assist your family.
Whatever your care needs and wherever your loved one is on their care journey, please contact us and let’s talk. We're here to help.
Around 1.5 million people in the UK have learning disabilities, and approximately 1.2 million of them are adults.
A person with a learning disability has a reduced intellectual ability and may have difficulties with everyday activities, such as household tasks, socialising, or managing money. People with learning disabilities often need more time to learn new skills, understand complicated information, and interact with people. All learning disabilities are lifelong. However, with the right support, a person with a learning disability can lead an independent and full life.
Learning disabilities can be mild, moderate, severe, or profound, and the level of support required depends on the individual. Learning disabilities should not be confused with learning difficulties, such as dyslexia, or neurodevelopmental conditions, such as ADHD.
Receiving support at home gives you more choice and control. Our person-centred support means clients with learning disabilities remain in familiar environments, close to family and friends and surrounded by meaningful possessions. This continuity provides crucial stability and has a positive impact on their emotional and mental health. We offer practical support that is a world away from the rigid schedules often found in residential care or a supported living complex.
Arranging professional help from a support worker also relieves pressure on families. Supporting people with learning disabilities is a journey, and our services can provide guidance and access to helpful resources. Whether you need short breaks for respite, long-term regular home visits, or full-time live-in assistance, we are here to help. Our goal is to make your family’s everyday life as enjoyable and independent as possible.

Our home care services are based on personal experience
We understand, first-hand how important it is to secure flexible and bespoke home care for your loved one.
“Tiggo Care is born out of my own personal experiences, following my struggle to find suitable care for my parents, both of whom lived with rare diseases..."

At Tiggo Care we understand how precious your loved one is to you and how unique they are. We also appreciate how overwhelming it can be to research and source the most suitable type of care.
We fundamentally believe that there is no ‘one size fits all’ care package and like to work with you and your loved one to understand your specific requirements. We’ll then create a tailored care package and match your relative with their ideal carer.
Unlike some other care providers, we are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission. This means we are regularly inspected, rated and audited to ensure we are a safe, effective, caring, responsive and well led organisation, committed to delivering the best possible care.
We’re also proud members of the Homecare Association, the U.K’s membership body for home care providers, which holds organisations to a high set of standards and requests them to abide by a strict code of practice
At Tiggo Care, all of our carers undergo a rigorous recruitment and induction process. They are fully vetted and background checked, with all references followed up. Our carers undertake their training on the best eLearning system currently available within the UK care market, ensuring they are well placed to deliver the best possible service. Specialist training courses such as moving and handling, medications and basic life support are also completed by our carers face to face, as we feel these courses are more effective when delivered in person.

Our care manager will arrange a free consultation with you at your loved one’s home to better understand your requirements, create a personalised care plan and pair your loved one with a suitable carer.
And that’s it. You’re all set! We’ll introduce you to your loved one’s carer and the whole team, who’ll be able to provide you with all the ongoing support you’ll need.
Yes. Our live-in care and supported living options offer continuous help in familiar home settings. This means support with daily routines, personal care, and everyday activities while staying connected to family and friends.
Support for people with learning disabilities should be flexible and personalised. It may include help with cooking, cleaning, and other household tasks, whether at home or in a supported living environment. Carers can also help clients explore activities outside the home, attend appointments, and access helpful resources in the local community.
A support worker can assist with personal care, household tasks, and community activities. They can also connect people with helpful resources, such as local groups, social events, and specialist advice services.
Remaining calm and patient is key when supporting someone with a learning disability. We work to understand each person’s triggers, offerclear choices, and reinforce positive behaviours through consistent, respectful support. We also signpost families to practical resources to help them learn tools to manage their loved one’s behavioural challenges and improve the family’s quality of life.
Contact our care team using the form below or by calling our office and we'll organise a free consultation to advise you on your specific care needs.
