We understand that personal care is, well, personal – it’s about your preferences, your routines, and your comfort. That’s why we ensure you see the same Care Professional regularly, allowing them to learn exactly how you like things done, whether it’s your morning shower, help with dressing, or support with personal grooming like nail care and beard shaving. While there might be less expensive options in the community, we offer something invaluable: reliability you can trust and Care Professionals who’ll be there on time when you need them.
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 client’s daughter shared this experience on homecare.co.uk: “Home Instead provided outstanding care for my mum during her worsening health. Her carer went over and above to not only support my Mum, but the whole family as well. Home Instead was empathetic and flexible, adapting the care arrangements to suit my mum’s changing needs.” This kind of adaptable, understanding care is what we strive for.
