Our approach focuses on supporting clients in ways that matter most to them – whether that’s keeping the garden tidy, preparing a favourite meal, or making sure the bins are taken out. Our minimum one-hour visits mean we’re never rushed and can properly check that everything’s in order, from medication reminders to ensuring bills aren’t piling up. We believe these regular checks help spot potential concerns early, giving families peace of mind that someone’s keeping a caring eye on their loved one’s wellbeing.
We offer two types of home care: hourly care, where we visit at set times, or live-in care, where a carer resides in the home. Both are overseen by our care management team and delivered by compassionate Care Professionals. Each care package is made up of of a unique mix services to meet your needs.

A recent review on homecare.co.uk highlights the difference we make for local clients and families: “The carers that visit my aunt from Home Instead put her at the centre of what they do. If something is of concern or needs doing it will be flagged up to the office.” Another client shared: “She really cleans my flat and if I want anything (coffee) she makes it when she comes.” These testimonials show how our practical support helps clients feel comfortable and cared for in their own homes.
