Visiting care and home care in Dorridge
Whilst Dorridge in its present community didn’t exist until the middle of the 19th century, there were certainly people living sporadically in the area a lot longer ago than that. An axe dating back to 1300BC was found nearby and cottages exist from the 16th century, but it was thanks to the arrival of the railway that Dorridge grew to its present size and prominence.
Helping Hands are familiar with small beginnings and steady growth, as we were founded in 1989 in Alcester, Warwickshire and are now established all across England and Wales. Our visiting care service can come to you from just 30 minutes a week, or we can provide live-in care for all of your needs, so regardless of how we can support you, talk to us today.

Quality care at home
From short term support to longer term visits and live-in care, our Dorridge 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.
