KirCCA is a non profit making organisation representing adult social care providers in Kirklees by way of membership of the Association. Formalised in 2022 KirCCA is the only organisation of its type operating in Kirklees.

KirCCA represents the views and voices of CQC regulated services in the Kirklees area through one organisation to support development and transformational activity of the Kirklees adult social care market.
Grant funding arrangements to the value of £109,000 for the 2025/26 financial year have been approved by way of delegated decision from the Council.
