Visiting care and home care in Barnstaple

Embedded deep into bucolic North Devon, the charming river-port town of Barnstaple holds claim to being the oldest borough in the United Kingdom. The town centre is host to a number of fascinating historic locations, including the site where Barnstaple Castle once stood.

It’s also home to our Barnstaple home care team, who have over 30 years’ experience in providing dedicated, compassionate and flexible home care. With packages starting from as little as 30 minutes a week, we’re sure to be able to support your specific needs and allow you to enjoy independence in your own home.

Quality care at home

From short term support to longer term visits and live-in care, our Barnstaple team can help.

We've been caring for people for decades, helping them maintain their independence and continue to live well in the homes and communities they love.

Branches nationwide

Over 155 branches across the UK means we're local to you.

Fully regulated

Regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales, giving you peace of mind that we meet the highest standards of service and care.

Rated Excellent on Trustpilot

Thousands of our customers have shared their experiences of care with us on customer review site Trustpilot with Helping Hands rated 4.7 out of 5.

Handpicked carers

We only employ those special people with the right levels of patience, empathy, and compassion to care for you as we'd want our own families to be cared for.

Care that's tailored to you

We know that good care means something different to each of us. That's why we take the time to get to know you and your family to understand your needs and preferences.

Supporting families

When finding care becomes a decision for the wider family, we can help you consider your options. We keep in touch once care is in place so we can adapt care as needs change.

Compassionate home care in Barnstaple

Home care is high quality care in the comfort of your home. At Helping Hands, we have over 30 years of experience in providing both visiting and live-in domiciliary care, so we’re experts when it comes to home care. We ensure you or your loved ones receive a bespoke package of support that is designed to suit your specific needs and is carried out to your requirements, and our carers are dedicated to providing compassionate, flexible care that allows you to live a more independent, enjoyable life.

Live-in care services to suit you

Our live-in carers are dedicated to providing compassionate, round-the-clock live-in care and companionship in a supportive but unobtrusive manner, meaning you get all the support you need in the comfort of your own home. When one of our carers lives in your home with you, they will be able to assist you around the house in any way you need - including mobility, personal care, housework and attending appointments – allowing you to enjoy a more independent, fulfilling life.

Why we're better than a care agency in Barnstaple

Our sole purpose is to ensure you receive the best care possible in the comfort of your own home, and as a private home care provider we’re much better placed to do that than a home care agency. We’re fully regulated by the CQC and CIW, and we employ our carers directly rather than insisting on self-employment. Additionally, we’ve got 30-plus years of home care experience and expertise to draw upon, which is why you’ll always receive the highest standards of care with us.

Respite care options at home

Our respite care allows you to avoid the stressful situation of suddenly finding yourself without care at short notice. Whether your regular carer is suddenly unavailable or you find yourself in need of a short-term care option, we’re almost always able to provide emergency care cover within 24 hours’ notice, meaning you’re able to continue with your normal daily routine without worrying about no-one being around to support you with housework or personal care.
