Since 1989, Helping Hands have been providing empathetic, person-centred home care to people across England and Wales. In that time, we’ve helped tens of thousands of our customers to continue living independently and confidently in their own homes, where they’re able to maintain their own routines and enjoy their own furniture and furnishings.
All of our care services are independently regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW).

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.

Hello, I'm Deborah your Area Care Manager for the South West region of Helping Hands. I have worked in care for over 10 years and feel privileged to be able to keep people at home. I am passionate about my job and think quality home care is essential. I have lived and worked in Gloucestershire for 14 years so have great local knowledge. In my free time I enjoy walks in the Cotswolds with my Springer Spaniel Woody and going on lovely holidays with my family and friends.

Hi, I'm Adam and as Regional Care Director, I'm responsible for making sure that all the customers we help are looked after brilliantly. In order to do this, we need to have the very best carers and support teams there for them so that they can thrive within Helping Hands and do what they do best: care. I think we do everything possible to really understand our customers' needs and then do everything possible to find the right carer for them. Our carers do a wonderful job, and they are special people who are 'hardwired' to care.
Our Reviews
Fully regulated by the CQC
Our Gloucestershire branch is fully regulated and accredited by the CQC
Home care can be an excellent option for anyone who is at a stage of life where they’d benefit from a bit of extra help from day to day but wishes to remain in their own home, rather than moving into residential care.
At Helping Hands, we offer home care on both a visiting and live-in basis, which means that whatever your level of need, we’ll have a care solution for you. Our visiting care starts from as little as 30 minutes per week, and your visits are scheduled around your schedule so that you’re receiving support at the times when you really need it. Live-in care gives you a more comprehensive care offering where you’ll have a carer staying in your home with you around the clock, and is ideal for those with palliative care needs or a complex condition.
24/7 live in care
When it comes to live in care in Gloucestershire, we know that you’ll have needs and preferences that are completely unique to you, which is why your local care manager in Gloucestershire will make sure you’re provided with a package of care which is tailored to you.
From your very first phone call to our wonderful team, we’ll make sure you’re at the centre of every decision that’s taken. That way, you can continue to enjoy the meals, bed-times, social engagements and other routines you’re used to.
Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Gloucestershire
At Helping Hands, we’re extremely proud of our wonderful carers. They truly are our greatest asset, and they’re the main reason we’ve got a reputation as the UK’s most widely-trusted home care provider. We only hire carers who possess a kind, compassionate personality, and who share our company-wide commitment to providing exceptional, transformative care to each and every customer.
As well as undergoing extensive background checks, every Helping Hands carer receives our industry-renowned carer training, where they’ll enrol on modules covering dementia care, moving and handling, medication, and so much more. This initial training is then supplemented by regular refresher courses, ensuing their knowledge and skills are constantly kept topped up.
