Helping people through life’s challenges
For 40 years, Care Network Cambridgeshire has been supporting people through difficult and challenging times. Whether it’s helping someone settle back home after a hospital stay, supporting someone through mental health challenges, or helping people reconnect with their community, our staff and volunteers provide practical and emotional support that builds confidence, independence and connection.
Our work also goes beyond individual support – we work alongside communities and local organisations to strengthen the connections and support that help people thrive.
Proudly celebrating 40 years!
Connecting communities, changing lives: Care Network Cambridgeshire celebrates 40 years.
Care Network Cambridgeshire is marking four decades of helping vulnerable adults across the county live independently, improve their wellbeing and stay connected within their communities, with an anniversary celebration taking place at Girton, Cambridgeshire on the 6th of October.
Supporting People. Strengthening communities.
Helping people stay independent, feel supported and connected through life’s challenges
For 40 years, Care Network Cambridgeshire has supported people through difficult times when people need it, providing practical and emotional support that helps people regain confidence, stay independent and feel connected to their communities.
But our work goes further. We work alongside people, volunteers, community groups and partner organisations to strengthen the connections and support that help communities support one another. By working together, we can reduce isolation, build confidence and independence, and help prevent problems from reaching crisis point.

A little extra support can make a big difference when managing everyday life at home becomes difficult. Help at Home provides short-term practical and emotional support for adults returning home from hospital or going through a difficult period at home, helping you regain confidence, manage everyday life and remain safe and independent in your own home and community.
When life feels difficult or overwhelming, RISE is here to help. Our team provides short-term, one-to-one practical and emotional support to help you understand what’s affecting your wellbeing, regain stability and confidence, and take positive steps forward before problems reach crisis point.
Strong communities help people feel connected, supported and able to take part in everyday life. Our Community Support work brings people, volunteers and local organisations together, helping people access essential services and opportunities while building stronger connections within communities across Cambridgeshire.

What people say about us…
And I was ready to give up really as I missed my wife so much. Thank you for the lovely service you provide. I don’t like to go out, so it was nice to talk to someone.
Our entire family extends our thanks for all you have done.
We are so looking forward to trying some out and certainly we feel less ‘loaded’ and happier that there are safe ways for helping us to socialise.
It was great to get all that info sent to us. We are working our way through it. Mum has had contact with a social worker and we have sorted some groups for her to go to.
Everyone is so busy these days. I got just what I asked for and more. It was great and I think I’m doing as well as can be.
I’m so grateful for the Community Car Scheme. Having a friendly volunteer pick me up, help me get in and out of the car, and make sure I arrive safely takes away so much stress, it’s an outstanding local service.
