To us it's personal

We deliver a range of care services ranging from companionship and household support to specialised care for complex conditions such as dementia. Our Care Professionals can accompany clients on gentle strolls along the Cuckmere River, assist with visits to Alfriston Surgery for medical appointments, or facilitate social outings to beloved local establishments like Badgers Tea House or the Six Bells pub. Working closely with Eastbourne General Hospital and other local healthcare providers, we ensure coordinated care that can typically begin within two weeks of initial consultation.

Choosing Home Instead Alfriston for personalised home care

The special character of Alfriston makes our care services particularly valuable to local residents. One of our clients, John, enjoys regular outings with his Care Professional Julie to Cuckmere Haven. They park in the National Trust car park along the A259, and Julie assists John in his wheelchair along the accessible riverside path to the sea. Their visits always include time for John’s favourite hobby of birdwatching, followed by a relaxing coffee and cake at the Seven Sisters Country Park café. These outings, which John describes as the highlight of his week, exemplify how our care services help maintain our clients’ connections to the activities and places they love.

Our Alfriston Team is With You Through Every Step

Our Outstanding CQC rating and excellent reviews on Homecare.co.uk reflect our team's dedication to exceptional care. We ensure continuity of care through consistent timing and matching of Care Professionals with clients, allowing genuine and meaningful relationships to develop. Our commitment to regular communication with family members and healthcare professionals, combined with our focus on engaging clients in daily activities, helps maintain both physical and mental wellbeing for those we support in Alfriston and the surrounding areas. This same commitment carries into the wider community, where we aim to build inclusive spaces for older residents across Eastbourne, Hailsham, and Polegate. To support this, we run a monthly community café in Willingdon and publish an annual 'What's on Where' community guide, which helps older adults discover local groups and activities. Although our community café currently takes place in Willingdon, we ensure that clients in Alfriston can stay connected by offering transport assistance and companionship. Our Care Professionals are committed to helping clients maintain their independence while enjoying everything this lovely village has to offer, from its historic high street to the beautiful South Downs surroundings.
