Gosport has a proud naval heritage going back centuries; indeed, the first fortifications were built in 1678 under the reign of Charles II.
While our own heritage can’t claim to go back as far as that, over the last 30 years Helping Hands have worked tirelessly to support as many people as possible to stay comfortably in their own homes to receive care. Our carers go above and beyond to deliver both our visiting and live-in care services and with visits starting from just 30 minutes a week we guarantee we can design a package of care to suit you.

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.

I see my main role as a Branch Care Manager being to keep all my staff and customers safe, whilst growing a healthy, productive business. This balancing act is an area in which I thrive, and I enjoy taking on new business, enabling more families to have access to a great team.

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 Gosport branch is fully regulated and accredited by the CQC
When you choose visiting care from Helping Hands you get an expert private carer coming to your home from just 30 minutes a week or whatever frequency suits you, but you also get the knowledge that you’re being supported by a company with over 30 years’ experience in the home care industry. Consequently, you can be confident that we know home care better than anyone, and we’ll support you expertly, whether you require help with personal care, meal preparation, medication, housework, laundry or anything else.
Better than a care agency in Gosport
Helping Hands are always going to be better than a home care agency because we offer so much more than agencies do. We directly employ all of our carers meaning that they feel valued and motivated to support our customers to the highest standards, and we also offer employment terms that are better than any agency would, for instance paid holiday and sickness and access to employee benefits.
Domiciliary care tailored to you
Domiciliary care, or care at home, is beneficial when you want to remain in the place you love but you need some extra support to do it. We’ve been offering outstanding, person-centred care to the whole of England and Wales since 1989, so you can have complete confidence in our fully managed care service to ensure your wellbeing is always safeguarded. We can help with personal care, medication administration, mobility support, meal preparation, housework and so much more, so talk to us today.
Dementia care from our experienced carers
When you’ve been diagnosed with dementia it can make everything seem uncertain and questions need to be asked about future plans, however it doesn’t naturally mean you’ll need care straight away. Wherever you are along your dementia journey we can help, and thanks to our over 30 years of dementia care experience, we really know the best ways to support you, for instance with activities that create, preserve and reflect on memories.
Respite care for your independence
When you need care for a short period of time, maybe because your carer needs to take a break or your family are going on holiday, why not have respite care from Helping Hands? Our compassionate carers will care for you on a visiting or live-in basis and they will undertake everything that you need to make you comfortable at home, such as medication, meal preparation and personal care. Perhaps you’ve never had care before, and you just want to see if care at home is a good fit for you? Even in an emergency we can help, getting care into your home within 24 hours where necessary.
Elderly care for extra support
Sometimes, as we get older, we can find ourselves not able to undertake certain tasks as effectively as we once did, especially if we’re living with age-related frailties or the after-effects of an illness or accident. There’s no need to struggle at home with tasks around the house such as vacuuming or changing bedlinen, or if you’re struggling to get in and out of the bath or shower, we can help with that too. In fact, we can support you with every aspect of your daily life so call us today to learn more about elderly care.
Fully trained carers in Gosport
We believe our carers are the best in the industry, and even though we train them thoroughly when they join us, nothing can make people care if it’s not there naturally. That’s why we carefully select people to become Helping Hands carers and encourage them to undertake further development if that’s what they’d like to do. This means they are always best placed to fully support you in your own home. We’re also fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission, so you know we’ll provide you with the highest quality, person-centred care.
