About us
Hi, I’m Ian - the Founder & CEO of Abney & Baker
As someone who had to find care and support for a parent with Parkinson’s and someone who served some time as a director of a major national care chain, I’ve gained unique experience on both sides of the care and support world. I’ve seen the impact of low wages and poor working conditions on staff morale and the impact this had on the care that people receive.
During this time, I became convinced that there had to be a better way. A care company that values and supports its team must be able to provide better care and support to its clients.
The result is Abney & Baker
We are family-owned, local and proud of the role we play in our community.
From the first day, we have put treating people right at the heart of every decision we make. Doing better by our employees allows us to do better by clients like you which, in turn, is good for the business.
As a result, I am incredibly proud of how we have built a company that:
Is a Top 20 Home Care Provider in the South West in 2023
Has staff turnover levels roughly half that of the national average for the care industry
Has trained and developed many of our colleagues to become trainers, supervisors or managers

Client testimonials
If you are looking for a compassionate, caring and professional team to care for an elderly loved one, then these guys are simply the best. All of the staff provided first-class care for our 97-year-old mother.
Fantastic company that made the whole process of finding care effortless. All the carers are amazing and work hard in making my mother’s life as comfortable as possible.
They will do pretty much anything and knowing that they are there each day is a great comfort.
The support provided by Abney & Baker made a big difference to our lives, during a very difficult period. We highly recommend this fantastic company.
