Enjoying the Outdoors, Your Way With Home Instead
Learn how Home Instead Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton supports older adults to enjoy local outings, hobbies, and daily routines with caring, one-to-one support.
Whether it’s staying connected with the community, visiting a favourite café, or getting out for a bit of fresh air, local outings are an important part of everyday life. But sometimes, the logistics can get in the way, especially if mobility, confidence, or transport options have changed.
At Home Instead Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton, we offer one-to-one support that’s built around the individual. Our Care Professionals don’t just help with practicalities, they bring friendly company, encouragement, and the reassurance that makes outings feel enjoyable again.
Local Highlights and Everyday Options
Here are a few of the ways we support clients to stay active, involved, and connected to the places they love:
Parks and Green Spaces
Hollycroft Park in Hinckley is a great spot for a steady walk or a quiet sit-down among the flowers. In Nuneaton, Riversley Park offers scenic paths and benches near the museum, perfect for a peaceful afternoon.
Shopping and Local Errands
Whether it’s popping to the market, picking up essentials, or choosing something nice for a family occasion, we help make these everyday tasks feel relaxed and doable – with help carrying bags, navigating shops, or simply being there for company.
Tea, Cake and Conversation
A visit to a local café like The Green Rooms in Nuneaton or Café Español in Hinckley can turn an ordinary day into something special. We’ll help plan the trip, make it accessible, and enjoy it together.
Gardens and Outdoor Time
For those who enjoy gardening or just sitting outdoors, we support light tasks like potting plants or arranging the garden space for comfort. Garden centre visits are also popular for a bit of inspiration and fresh air.
Local Clubs and Events
Whether it’s a craft group, a local coffee morning, or something happening at the library, we’re happy to help clients find out what’s on, get involved, and enjoy something different.
Practical, Personal Support
Every outing is different, so we tailor our support to match. Some people prefer quiet spots and familiar places, others enjoy trying something new. Whatever the plan, we make sure it’s comfortable, safe, and enjoyable.
Our support can include:
- Help getting ready and planning ahead
- Support with mobility, transport, and accessibility
- Friendly companionship and emotional reassurance
Flexibility – to go at your pace, with no rush
Why It Matters
Time outside the house, whether it’s for a purpose or just for pleasure, can lift spirits, create new conversations, and boost confidence. We’ve seen first-hand how a regular outing or social activity can make a big difference to someone’s week.
We focus on care that supports not just independence, but enjoyment. Whether it’s a quiet trip to a park bench or a full day out, we’re here to make it easier and more meaningful.
