We provide personalised home care across Ixworth and Bury St Edmunds, led by our owner Brian McFarlane. After three decades in the technology sector, Brian made the switch to care, working hands-on as a Care Professional before establishing Home Instead Bury St Edmunds.

We're growing steadily and carefully, hand-picking skilled Care Professionals who share our dedication to supporting people in our Suffolk community. We're just as actively involved in daily life across Ixworth and the surrounding villages, running popular dementia cafes in the local area where clients and their families meet, chat and find vital support. Our team helps organise regular Singing for Wellbeing sessions, memory cafes and digital skills workshops, whilst also sponsoring classical concerts at The Apex in Bury St Edmunds. We work closely with the St Edmunds Parkinson's group, supporting their fundraising efforts and hosting practical workshops on topics like scam awareness to help keep our local older community safe and connected.
