Home care in Colchester
Visiting care and home care in Colchester
With an ancient history stretching as far back as 2000 years, this Essex city was the first in the UK and former capital Roman Britain. Now known for its collection of wild animals at Colchester Zoo, its quaint villages and beautiful countryside, this charming place also boasts its own friendly team of Helping Hands carers
From just 30 minutes per week, your Helping Hands carer can provide the support you need to continue living independently at home, whether that be the help of a companion getting around the shops and making meals or nursing care for complex conditions. With flexible packages, you are in control of the level of care you receive, from hourly visits to live-in care for full-time support.
Quality care at home
From short term support to longer term visits and live-in care, our Colchester 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.
