Choosing Home Instead Birkdale for personalised home care

Families across Birkdale have shared heartfelt thanks for the care their loved ones received. One daughter told us, “Dad always wanted to stay in the home where he raised our family, and with the support of his lovely caregivers, he managed to do this until the week before he died, aged 98. The team were consistently professional and kind, and gave us reassurance from 170 miles away.” Another client’s wife, Valerie, shared, “We have two lovely caregivers who helped my husband with care and consideration. They were always cheerful, and I was enormously appreciative of their help and friendliness.” These touching testimonials reflect our focus on dependable, heartfelt care that supports both clients and their families during every stage of their journey.

Our Birkdale Team is With You Through Every Step

Home Instead Southport & Formby is led by Anthea Pilkington and Irene Hough, whose leadership is rooted in deep personal experience and professional dedication. Anthea, Home Instead UK's first Registered Care Manager, has spent her career championing care that meets the highest standards - what we call the 'Mum & Dad Test' - while Irene's approach is shaped by her own loved one's need for support that just wasn't available at the time, giving her an empathy that resonates throughout. Together, they lead with warmth, integrity, and a clear mission to deliver personalised, life-enhancing care across Birkdale and beyond. This mission extends into the wider community too, where our free dementia workshops provide practical advice and emotional support to those caring for loved ones, helping raise awareness about how best to live well with dementia. Held throughout the year, these sessions bring local families together, creating a support network rooted in trust, understanding, and shared experience across Birkdale.
