Why Companionship Care may be right for you
Friendship shouldn’t feel formal – that’s why our Care Professionals don’t wear uniforms, making every visit feel natural and relaxed. We believe in doing things together, whether that’s tending to the garden, sharing lunch, or solving a tricky crossword puzzle. Our Care Professionals are wonderful listeners who encourage independence while being alert to subtle changes in mood or wellbeing. By carefully matching personalities and interests, and ensuring you see the same friendly faces each time, we create genuine connections that help our clients feel truly understood and supported.

We have spent a fabulous morning at Spark Community Space today with some of our amazing volunteers attending a Dementia Awareness session delivered by the lovely Helen Brown of Home Instead Portsmouth.
We now have a far better understanding of what dementia can mean [to the person living with dementia] and their loved ones and how we can help then feel welcomed and safe.

Older adults living alone won’t always need companionship care, it is often most beneficial for individuals who require more social interaction or feel isolated from friends and family.
