Visiting care and home care in Kendal
Kendal may perhaps be most famous for a type of confectionery, but there’s much more to this Cumbrian town than that. Appearing in the Domesday Book as part of Yorkshire with the name Cherchebi, cloth making was the primary occupation in Kendal for many years and even influenced the town’s motto ‘Pannus mihi panis’ (wool is my bread).
With visiting care in the Kendal area starting at just 30 minutes per week with Helping Hands, you can be sure that however you need help at home we can oblige. Perhaps you’d prefer live-in care and around the clock companionship as well? No matter the support you need, we can be there as often or as infrequently as you need us.

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.
