Down’s Syndrome is a genetic condition characterised by distinct physical features and varying degrees of cognitive development.
In the UK, about one in every 1,000 babies is born with Down's Syndrome. Down’s Syndrome is a genetic condition caused by the presence of an extra chromosome 21. Individuals with Down's Syndrome often have distinctive facial features, such as a flat facial profile, upward-slanting eyes, and a single deep crease across the centre of the palm. They may also experience developmental delays, mild to moderate intellectual disability, and some associated health issues, such as heart defects and thyroid conditions.
With the right support people with Down's Syndrome can lead fulfilling lives, participating actively in their communities, attending school or college, and engaging in meaningful work. Early intervention, educational support, and tailored healthcare play crucial roles in enhancing their quality of life and promoting independence.
"Working with a person who has Down’s Syndrome is truly rewarding. Every day is different, and I get to help them tackle their daily tasks, like getting to work or school and just having fun; a little support goes a long way. It’s about making each day smoother and more enjoyable for them, and that brings a smile to my face, too!"
Our home service for a person with Down’s Syndrome primarily focuses on enhancing their independence by assisting with daily routines. People with Down’s Syndrome can benefit from our tailored assistance, which significantly improves their ability to handle domestic tasks, pursue educational goals, and maintain employment. Our detailed care plans guide our carers in providing the specific support needed for your loved one.
Our services include providing help getting to workplaces or schools and ensuring all appointments are attended on time. Additionally, support at home encourages a stable routine by assisting with activities such as meal preparation. Our structured support not only promotes a sense of autonomy but also promotes social interactions within the community.

Our home care service is 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.

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.
Our at-home support for people with Down’s Syndrome focuses on supporting daily routines and promoting independence. This includes help with domestic tasks, getting to work or educational settings and managing routines to ensure a stable, fulfilling life at home.
Consider home support when you want to enhance a loved one’s independence and participation in daily activities or when they need assistance with tasks such as commuting, managing appointments, or keeping up with domestic chores. This support is ideal for maintaining their routine in a comfortable, familiar environment.
A care assistant can greatly improve the daily experiences of someone with Down’s Syndrome by assisting with household chores, ensuring they get to work or school on time, and supporting consistent health practices. This support is tailored to foster independence while ensuring safety.
Tiggo Care can assist with a variety of outdoor activities for people with Down's syndrome, such as trips to the cinema, relaxing beach outings, and other community engagements.
