  • Who We Are

At the core of our home care services in Tendring and Colchester, Essex, is our dedicated management team. They play a vital role in coordinating and organising every aspect of the care our clients receive. From recruiting and training compassionate, professional carers to ensuring full compliance with all current health and social care legislation, our team is committed to maintaining the highest standards of care.

We continually strive to exceed the expectations set by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and work closely with local authorities, including Essex County Council Social Services, to ensure quality and consistency across all of our domiciliary care services.

Our main office is centrally located in Clacton-on-Sea, serving clients across the Tendring and Colchester Peninsula. In addition, we operate a state-of-the-art Centre of Excellence training facility in Harwich, a dedicated staff hub in Holland-on-Sea, and also maintain satellite offices in Chelmsford and Castle Point to support our wider Essex home care network.

This robust operation is primarily managed by a team of four experienced staff members, each bringing their own expertise and dedication to delivering high-quality home care across the region.

Charles Cross - Director 

Charles Cross is the Director of E Care, a leading private home care provider delivering personalised domiciliary care services across Essex. With a deep commitment to innovation in social care, Charles is passionate about improving outcomes for individuals and families through modern, person-centred care solutions that help people remain independent in their own homes.

Before joining E Care in 2024, Charles built a successful career in the financial advisory and insurance sector. He holds a BSc in Economics from the University of Nottingham and brings a strategic, analytical approach to business growth and service development.

His dedication to advancing care quality and technology-led solutions was recognised in 2021 when he received the Care Innovator Award from Home Care Insight.
