Our CAREGivers come from all walks of life. They span the generations and have a wide variety of hobbies, interests and experience. But they all share one thing, the desire to make a difference to someone’s life.
Here are some of their stories

I loved my time in the constabulary. But working in homecare, helping older people continue living in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes surrounded by a lifetime of memories is the most rewarding experience of my career to date.

I think of Sandra as a great friend rather than a carer, she brings sunshine and smiles into my home. We chat about everything and anything. I look forward to seeing her because we get on so well. It’s such a beautiful bond that we have. We make a perfect pair.

I thoroughly enjoy being a companion to Brian. I can’t think of a more rewarding job. I think it is great for both of us to be able to relax, enjoy a game of snooker and talk about the past.

I just love that I know I am helping to make someone’s day a bit brighter. I love sitting down for a chat and a good laugh, and some of the stories my clients tell are just amazing. It is the best job I ever had.
