Get in touch Why Companionship Care may be right for you
A regular friendly visitor can transform someone’s day. Our Care Professionals spend time doing things clients enjoy, from catching up over tea to helping with hobbies or getting out to local places like a stroll around Wat Tyler Park. We don’t wear uniforms, making outings feel natural and relaxed. As one client noted: “They arrive on time, stay the full time, and are always cheerful – ready to chat and make a good cup of tea.”
