HOME HELP
Laundry involves washing, ironing and also changing bed linen, a task that can be extremely difficult for some people. This service can be provided in your home or laundered off site, dependant on your preference or the suitability of your surroundings.
BEFRIENDING
Sometimes you may just require some occasional company, somebody to call in, check you are OK, play cards, or make a cup of tea and chat. Perhaps read your mail, a favourite book, or the paper to you.
This type of support can be very reassuring to you and your relatives. It will enable your carer, relative to relax in the knowledge that somebody is calling in to check all is well and also alleviate any loneliness that you may experience.
SHOPPING
If you are unable to do your shopping the we can make this possible by arranging for a carer to call in, pick up your shopping list and go and collect your shopping on your behalf.
