Visiting care and home care in Acton

Acton’s name is derived from the Old English words āc (oak) and tūn (enclosed garden, enclosure), literally meaning "a garden or a field enclosed by oaks", suggesting Acton originated from somewhat humble beginnings.

Established in 1989 from similarly humble beginnings, Helping Hands was a family-run business for 30 years and has developed a reputation for compassionate, diligent home care. We still have a strong family-centred ethos, with people at the heart of everything that we do, and with our care plans starting from just 30 minutes a week we’re sure to be able to find a support plan to meet your specific wishes.

    Specialised Home care in Acton

    Our home care plans are fully adaptable to your requirements and wishes, and our brilliant carers are fully trained to support your specific needs, whatever your condition. We’ve got over 30 years’ experience in providing person-centred care to people living with dementia, motor neurone disease, spinal injuries, mental health conditions, loneliness and limited mobility. In that time, we’ve learned just how valuable your independence and comfort are to your wellbeing, so being able to receive care in the familiar surroundings of your own home is incredibly beneficial.

    Our individually tailored Live-in care services

    Whether you or your loved ones are finding your care requirements to be increasingly complex, or you’re not comfortable living on your own and need companionship, live-in care is a brilliant alternative to a care home. Our superb live-in carers will provide you with round-the-clock companionship and expert support, assisting you in the home and with your daily routines. We always listen to your preferences and your wishes to ensure you’re matched with a carer who shares your interests and personality, and our carers possess expertise in supporting people living with various conditions.

    Better than a care agency in Acton

    Helping Hands are a private home care company, rather than an agency, which means everything’s a lot more straightforward with us and there’ll be certain standards you can be confident we’ll meet. For instance, we directly employ our carers, whereas many agencies will require their carers to be self-employed. This means you won’t get any unexpected charges or hidden costs with us, and our brilliant carers will be able to focus all their energy on supporting your independence to the best of their ability.

    Domiciliary care to meet your needs

    Domiciliary care is a brilliant option if you find yourself needing extra support but want to remain in your own home where you’re familiar with your surroundings and close to your loved ones. With over 30 years’ experience in delivering compassionate, people-centred care, we’re perfectly placed to assess and meet your care requirements. Our visiting service starts from just 30 minutes a week, and we’ll take steps to ensure you can design a package of care that meets your needs, regardless of your condition. Alternatively, our live-in care service provides you with round-the-clock support, companionship and reassurance.
