EDGE provides support to ethnic disabled people in the local community.

Services are available from 7.00 am to 10.00 pm, seven days per week, including all public and bank holidays.

All our carers are from various ethnic and cultural backgrounds so that we can take care of you and your loved ones in a way that suits your cultural and social needs, because we know that it matters.
