The Greenwich & Bexley Companionship Care team, here to help every step of the way
Here in Blackheath, Greenwich, Welling, Bexleyheath, Sidcup and Eltham, we offer companionship that makes a real difference. Our Care Professionals don’t wear uniforms and spend at least an hour on each visit, making everything feel more natural and friendly. As one of the few home care providers rated ‘Outstanding’ by the CQC, we know that good companionship starts with the right approach – whether that’s sharing a hobby, having a chat over tea, or heading out to local places you enjoy.

Why Companionship Care may be right for you
We match you with a Care Professional who shares your interests and understands what matters to you. From our experience, these natural connections make all the difference – like when we paired a client who missed cooking Jamaican dishes with a Care Professional who shared her passion for Caribbean cuisine. Starting companionship care early can help you stay independent and connected to the things you love doing. Our Care Professionals come from all walks of life, which means we can find someone who’ll be just right for you.
