Social Support & Companionship Care Support

Whilst living on your own has lots of benefits, at times it can make you feel lonely and sometimes quite isolated. Seeing a friendly face can lift your spirits, break up the day or week and give you something to look forward to.

Whether you'd like some companionship or to have someone to share a cup of tea with in the afternoon, you can arrange a social call as little or often as you want.

During social support visits we can carry out an array of activities such as:

Pop in for a friendly chat and a cuppa
Read a book with you, watch a favourite film
Help you with your hobbies or interests
Play games, cards, chess or a jigsaw puzzle
Visit a place of interest, the bank, shops or supermarket
Complete household chores; laundry, ironing etc.

We will always try to provide you with the same person, so you can pick up where you left off – "Because we care, we know".

Very professional service all round. Friendly staff in the office.

The carers that came out to the client were all reliable and friendly and one in particular continually went above and beyond what was asked of them.

1Care really do care and my husband feels safe and happy in their hands.

The carers are friendly, helpful, kind, knowledgeable and professional, and when my husband was very ill recently they were very supportive of me, too.

Nothing is too much trouble and we think they are wonderful.

Great carers. Very kind and very friendly care teams. My dad would be lost without the help of these guys. So a massive thank you to you all so much!

My dad trusts and has become good friends with all the carers from 1Care.

I would definitely recommend 1Care to friends and family. Thank you once again.

I have carers twice daily from 1Care and have done so for the last 5 months. The carers have all been lovely caring individuals and have been willing to do anything to help me and always with a smile.

Any communication I have had with the office has always been courteous and professional.

I have no reservations at all about recommending the services of 1Care.
