Here’s what our clients say about working with us
“We chose Home Instead to care for my mum at home after she had a hip replacement. They were highly recommended by my husband’s parents who used them last year. Susie superbly matched my mum with a live in carer called Min who was amazing!
My mum was previously independent and Min struck the right balance between initially helping her with personal care and cooking and then gradually letting her do more for herself so after 6 weeks she was back to independent living.
I can’t recommend them highly enough and if we needed care again in the future for either parents I would not hesitate to use them.”
– C. Greenstreet.
“My wife suffers from Dementia but is a very active person. H.I. were very careful to match a carer to fit my wife’s needs and always checking with me for input to what I think is best for my wife. When I phone the office I always speak with a cheery and helpful person who tries very hard to meet my requests. Usually Andrea.
I have two carers assigned to my wife , Graham and Gulay, who are both very professional, trustworthy, reliable, always on time and never in a rush to leave, both are very capable at using their initiative.
Both Graham and Gulay feel like family friends and when they bring my wife home she is always got a smile on her face and is happy and cheerful. Graham takes her swimming, plays an adaptive type of badminton at the local sports centre and Gulay will often take her for a walk if the weather is ok.
I have been very impressed in their professionalism, cheeriness and friendly approach. I can’t thank them enough, it gives my wife a great time and I get some much needed respite.”
– D. Jeffs.
Meet Some Of Our Farnham Home Care Team
Meet Lauren
Lauren is one of our business development managers who started as a care pro. She has seen every side of care, from home help to overseeing care pros as a live-in care manager and now the broader parts of our business.
“I found Home Instead when I was looking for something flexible that would work around my children. With no previous experience in care, I was apprehensive to start with, but I was given all the friendly support and training I needed, and my confidence grew and grew. And the clients are so lovely. I looked forward to seeing them every day and being part of their care journey.
It was a no-brainer when I had the opportunity to progress into the office. Every day is fast-paced and different, and I’m really enjoying the variety of the job and all the opportunities to help our clients from a different perspective.”
Meet Jessica
Jessica has one of our local domiciliary care pros working hard to get jobs done around the house for you. She also offers personal care and relief for live-in carers.
“I offer a variety of different care. All domiciliary. A mix of companionship, home help, personal care and relief for live-in carers.
The best part of working in my local area is knowing that even the smallest of support can make a huge difference, from helping someone have a good start to the day to ensuring they are comfortable when going to bed at night. Sometimes, just making them laugh is enough to brighten their day.
I also love the fact that I can help clients in their bigger times of need, like recovering from surgery and undergoing rehabilitation. To help them get back to living life on their terms makes me really happy.”
We Go The Extra Mile To Support Farnham Seniors
We’ve worked in Farnham for several years, supporting our over 50s clients with home care services, so it was natural to extend our help to the wider community.
One of our local initiatives is support for Farnham Assist, a community project run by our friends at the Christian organisation. It is dedicated to supporting older individuals who have become isolated from friends, neighbours, and their local community.
We provide our wheel-chair accessible car and a driver for each monthly Sunday roast to help one more person attend and find friends.

All of our help is designed to specifically help your loved one live at home for longer, a much happier and healthier person.
How Much Does Farnham Home Care Cost? And Can You Get Funding?
Waverley Borough Council will be able to help you with funding questions. Partial funding may be available for those eligible through a means-test.
As to costs. Costs vary widely from client to client, based on what you need. But what we can tell you is this. If you need a twice-monthly visit for just a few hours, you would be spending around £150. This would cover things like household chores and companionship.
Can we make special arrangements for people with specific needs?
Yes. We can cater to couples, those with pets, and elders who speak a foreign language or have religious needs. We also cater to those who have long-term illnesses or people with impairments or disabilities.
Let us know what you need, and we will match you to a care pro with the right experience.
Will You Be Updated on Mum and Dad’s Care?
We have very clear communication guides in place for our teams, which will give you access to real-time information on how Mum and Dad are doing.
We also have an app, so you can speak to carers or care managers if you need us.
