Visiting care and home care in Lewisham

A small village until the arrival of the passenger train, Lewisham has an interesting history that mixes the old and the new, with urban high-rises and Victorian homes adding to the mix of family and community. The earliest recorded mention of Lewisham is in a charter from 862 where it was referred to as Liofshema.

While our history is not as lengthy as that of Lewisham, we still have four decades of experience caring for people in their own homes, promoting their independence at all times. Our ethos hasn’t changed in all those years, even though we now cover the whole of England and Wales with our visiting and live-in care services that are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales.

Quality care at home

From short term support to longer term visits and live-in care, our Lewisham 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.

Branches nationwide

Over 155 branches across the UK means we're local to you.

Fully regulated

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.

Rated Excellent on Trustpilot

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.

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.

High quality home care in Lewisham

Our home care in Lewisham services are second to none and rated highly across England and Wales, but this is because we work tirelessly to ensure that we keep people safe and comfortable in the homes they love most. Our carers are carefully chosen to ensure we only have people who are compassionate and kind working for us, meaning you and your loved ones can have full confidence in the service we deliver, whether you have low-level needs or the most complex.

24/7 live in care support

Having live-in care is a whole other level of support, with someone living in your home and making sure that your daily routine runs seamlessly. This could be your personal care, housekeeping, meal preparation, or medication management, or something completely different. Most of al though is the fact that you’ll have constant companionship and never be lonely, although our carers will always respect boundaries and never make you feel as if your home is no longer your own.

Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Lewisham

There are some big differences between care agencies and care companies. We’ve been a private home care company since we were established in 1989, and proudly so. Care agencies don’t have the commitment to high quality, consistent care that we do; they’re focussed on charging fees for services that should really be included in the quote, such as matching you with a carer – something that we’d never charge extra for. We also own and manage all of our 155 local branches, feeling that franchising our name would have a detrimental affect on our consistency of service.

Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Lewisham

We value our carers very highly at Helping Hands, feeling that they’re the beating heart of our business due to the amazing things they achieve for their customers every single day. We choose our people carefully though so we can be sure of their commitment to our values, by handling our own recruitment, selection, and training processes. This way we can be sure that standards remain consistently high and that everyone has the opportunity to build on their natural qualities, as well as access development opportunities when they feel the time is right.
