We work with a trusted network of specialists to bring our customers more than we could deliver alone. From innovative digital health to charities, here’s who’s behind the scenes.
At StellarCare NW, we believe outstanding care doesn’t happen in isolation. Our nurse-led, person-centred approach is strengthened by the relationships we build with trusted organisations across Ellesmere Port, Cheshire and beyond — from healthcare and social care bodies to the specialists who support us behind the scenes. Below are some of the partners helping us deliver safe, dignified, independent living for the people we care for.

The Care Workers’ Charity exists to support, champion, and empower the people who make social care work.
With over 1.6 million people employed in adult social care in England alone, the workforce is vast, skilled, and essential. Yet care workers continue to face low pay, limited career progression, poor working conditions, and a persistent lack of recognition for the
complexity and value of the work they do. The Care Workers’ Charity is here to change that.
We provide direct financial support through crisis grants, alongside mental health and wellbeing resources, to care workers who need help in difficult times. We also work at a systemic level, using data, advocacy, and the lived experience of care workers themselves to push for meaningful improvements across the sector.
Through initiatives like Professional Care Workers’ Week, our annual Wellbeing Survey, and our Care Worker Advisory Board, we put frontline voices at the centre of every conversation. Because the people closest to the work are best placed to shape its future.
