Wicklow Community Services

Caring in the Community since 1985

Wicklow Community Services CLG was originally established in the early 1980’s as a voluntary organization dedicated to assist vulnerable people in the Wicklow area. In 1995 we were recognised and acknowledged by the Health Service Executive as one of the main providers for home care services in Wicklow and the surrounding areas. In 2016, WCS joined the new Arklow-Dublin-Wicklow Consortium (ADW) to provide Home Support Services for the HSE.
