Why Companionship Care may be right for you

Our Care Professionals don’t wear uniforms because we want visits to feel natural and relaxed. Whether it’s popping to The Windmill Farm for a coffee and cake or enjoying a quiet afternoon at home, it feels more like spending time with a friend. We believe in doing things together – cooking favourite meals, birdwatching, or working on hobbies. Having longer visits means there’s time to build real connections and understand what matters to you. It’s amazing how a game of cards or working on a puzzle together can spark great conversations.
