What we can provide

What we can help you with

We help can help and support you with:

• Personal care – getting up and dressed, showering and bathing; Sometimes people are afraid of using the bath or shower when no one is in their home with them. It may not be that you need actual support to bathe but the confidence that someone is close at hand;
• Taking medication and collecting it for you; Medication is vital to our wellbeing, and it needs to be taken at the times and in the way that the GP or Consultant has prescribed it;
• Shopping – on your behalf or with you; During COVID and as we would if someone is unwell we have helped people get their shopping in a variety of ways – through click and collect, by going to the supermarket for them, or by taking them to the supermarket or local shops to chose for themselves. We know how important it is for people to be able to make their own choices and to feel independent.
• Socialisation/accessing the community; Sometimes it could just be a simple walk to help with mobility, or we have taken people, and stayed with them for visits to the theatre, cinema, exhibitions, or even coffee mornings and lunch clubs.
• Practical and domestic support including washing and ironing, and those more difficult tasks that, at times, we are all unable to do.
• We can offer dog walking visits, help in the garden and with household repairs and decorating.
