About Us At Able Community CareThe History of Able Community CareAble Domestic Employment Agency's objective was to provide long term care at home as an alternative to residential care for people with high dependency needs. Therefore, they devised a continuous, long term, live in Housekeeper/Carer scheme. In 1981 the first long term, live-in care scheme began and the cover was provided without a break in service for 4 years until the person concerned died. Since then, live in care has continued to be provided by Able throughout the United Kingdom for people who wish to remain in their own homes. In 1989 Angela was a founder member of the UKHCA (United Kingdom Home Care Association) and was an Executive Member for 11 years. In 1990, the 'Able Domestic Employment Agency' partnership was dissolved and Angela became a sole trader of Able Community Care.
