Local clients tell us of the positive impact of our home care. Clare, a client’s daughter, shared, “All of the regular and reliable carers are kind and caring to my mum who was nervous and doubtful about having support initially.” Another client’s friend said, “Home Instead (Bury St Edmunds) provides a caring, efficient and praiseworthy service. They treat a very vulnerable old lady with dignity and concern.” These testimonials from homecare.co.uk paint a picture of our compassionate and considerate care.
Our experienced leadership team brings over three decades of care expertise to Great Barton. Owner and Managing Director Brian McFarlane leads our growing team, having transitioned from a successful career in technology to follow his calling in home care. We understand that choosing care for a family member is one of life's most important decisions, which is why we're always here to listen, answer questions and provide guidance. Our hands-on experience as Care Professionals shapes how we support local families, combining professional expertise with genuine understanding and warmth. We're just as deeply involved in Great Barton and the wider Suffolk community, running regular dementia cafes across the local area where clients and their families connect and share experiences. Our support extends to sponsoring classical concerts at The Apex in Bury St Edmunds, accompanying clients to memory cafes, whilst our team actively supports the St Edmunds Parkinson's group with vital fundraising activities. We help local older people stay connected through our digital awareness workshops, church social events and Singing for Wellbeing sessions, making meaningful contributions that bring real benefits to our clients' daily lives.
