About The Company
Guild Care, a not-for-profit charity established in Worthing in 1933, was founded by a group of visionary volunteers, including Effie Methold, E.A. Haviland, Arthur Linfield, and Frank Cave.

Over the decades, Guild Care has grown and evolved, continually adapting to meet the needs of Worthing and its surrounding communities. Today, the charity supports over 3,000 people and their families each year through a diverse portfolio of more than 30 community services.
