Home care in Blyth
Visiting care and home care in Blyth
Conveniently situated near the bustling cities of Newcastle and Sunderland, Blyth is a town with ancient beginnings, focussed on its historic 12th century port, which still thrives to this day. Helping Hands have historic beginnings too, although not quite that far back! We were established in 1989 to support people who wished to receive care at home in the place they wanted to stay, rather than having to relocate to a residential home, and we’ve been doing exactly that ever since. Our local Cramlington branch team are very near and are able to support people across the region, including in Bedlington, Ashington, Newbiggin-by-the-Sea, as well as the historic suburbs of Newsham, Bebside and Cowpen. Our visiting and live-in care services are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales, which should reassure both you and your loved ones that you’ll always be in the best hands.
Quality care at home
From short term support to longer term visits and live-in care, our Blyth 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.
Over 155 branches across the UK means we're local to you.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
