The Godalming Personal Care team, here to help every step of the way
Personal care is naturally a private matter, which is why we take such care to provide support that feels comfortable and dignified across our local area from Godalming, and Haslemere to Pulborough and Storrington. Our hour-long visits give plenty of time for morning or evening routines, from help with washing and dressing to choosing comfortable clothes for the day ahead. Every client has different preferences and routines – understanding and respecting these helps us provide care that feels natural and supports independence at home.

Why Personal Care may be right for you
Familiarity makes all the difference with personal care. That’s why we make sure you see the same Care Professionals who understand exactly how you like things done – a bath instead of a shower in the evening or your preferred morning routine, or how you take your tea afterwards. Our approach focuses on maintaining dignity while encouraging independence where possible. Having longer visits means we’re never rushed, giving time to ensure you’re comfortable and safe.
What we do to care for your loved ones
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.

At a very difficult and emotional time we found Home Instead to be incredibly supportive. They always acted swiftly, professionally and with good humour and it was always made clear that our Dad’s wishes were of the utmost importance. To have such support at a very difficult time was absolutely priceless and we can’t thank you enough. – Client’s family member
Feedback from our clients
Home Instead came to me via personal recommendation and I couldn’t be happier with the service provided to my parents. More importantly, my parents (both fiercely independent and initially very reluctant) have been delighted with the support they are receiving
Sandra is funny the way she tells her stories and she is jolly and she is so quick. I call her Speedy Gonzales. She just has a lovely personality
Historically care pros have found Kathleen a little difficult to build a relationship with as she is so fiercely independent but for the first time ever in her care experience she has commented how much she enjoyed Anna’s visit and what a laugh she had – which seems in line with her visit notes!” – Kathleens Family member
Home Instead have provided personal and respite care to my parents for 8 months – they’ve always been professional, polite, helpful and friendly. The carers never rush and nothing is too much trouble. Communication with the office is great – they’re always on hand to deal with any queries. I’d happily recommend them
. All the Home Instead carers that I’ve met to date have been terrific. Proactive, helpful, friendly and trustworthy. From an administrative perspective, the team is also super helpful and responsive. I was entirely new to the complex minefield that is senior care, but the team at Home Instead have helped me navigate a path that is working well for my parents and providing me with peace of mind. I’ve also learned that care needs develop over time, and I have appreciated the flexibility of the Home Instead’s support, which has allowed for a varying level of help as my parents’ needs have changed (it started with just one hour per week and has evolved over time to a full-time, live-in carer which is enabling them to remain in their much-loved family home.
Very professional from the start. As a carer myself there was a list of criteria. All was covered in the initial interview without prompting. Love the quantity and quality of the care provided.
Although professional, all carers have become part of the family. Mum is happy and so are we. Love you all.
For a few years now we have used Home Instead for companion visits to my son. They have always acted with utmost professionalism and compassion and have ensured that there’s continuity of care. This is so important to build a rapport between the client and carer and my son considers his carer as a friend. I know that they always have my son’s best interest at heart and this is so reassuring. I would recommend them without any hesitation
Home Instead has cared for my mother for several years, has had excellent care, and any issues have always been sorted out very promptly.
Would not use any other provider – very happy with everything.”
Home Instead have been caring for my father for 18 months now. The staff and caregivers are always friendly and efficient and make an effort to engage my Dad in a conversation around a subject they know he enjoys. They have brought in their own books and go that little bit further with the service provided.”
Tailored Personal Care in Godalming
A client’s wife recently shared on homecare.co.uk that she was “very pleased with the help and support of the carers,” noting how they “have had a good rapport” with her husband. Another family member praised how we’re “consistently thoughtful and kind” with “attention to detail to be commended.” These experiences reflect our commitment to providing personal care that’s both professional and sensitive to individual needs.
