Meet Leanne, our Branch Manager
Leanne is a registered manager with the Care Quality Commission (CQC), and oversees and manages every care package in her area. She also supports her team of carers who she describes as ‘fantastic and extremely helpful’, to ensure they are provided with the best possible support.
Leanne’s journey in care started after her grandmother suffered a stroke, Leanne said, “I supported her during the first 12 months of her rehabilitation, building her confidence and enabling her to gain some independence.
“I soon realised that this was something I was passionate about, and so decided to pursue care as a career bringing my passion and empathy to those who need it most.”
Home visits tailored to your needs
We’re proud to have been providing person-centred care to thousands of families across England and Wales for over 30 years, ensuring that they are enabled to remain at home with no compromise to their independence.
We understand how important it is that you remain in control of your care, which is why Leanne and her team will work with you to provide a personalised care plan that puts your needs at the centre. Whether your loved one is living with dementia and you are concerned for their wellbeing at home, or you simply need some extra support in getting out and about in your local community; our Manchester team are here to give you the support you need, when you need it.
With each of our carers completing an award-winning training programme, our Manchester team are fully equipped to provide high-quality support for Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, cerebral palsy, mental health conditions and many more.
It’s been two weeks since your carers began looking after my mum. Wow, what a difference there is. Even my father’s carers have commented on mum’s improvement. I can’t thank you enough.

As we develop through the latter stages in life, it can often become apparent that our minds and our bodies aren’t as quick as they once were – but that doesn’t mean that you have to make any sacrifices to your independence. Whether you need a helping hand to fold your laundry or walking to the shop for your morning newspaper, Leanne and her team are here to help you with anything you need.
And if you’re living with a progressive condition, we can increase the regularity of your care and be with you every step of the way.
Respite care for your short-term needs
There’s no telling when any one of us may need a little extra help. Care needs can arise and change at any given time, often with very little notice – but not to worry, our Manchester team can provide you with respite care packages to give you the support you need, when you need it – sometimes with as little as 24 hours’ notice.
Whether your regular carer is taking a break, you’re returning home from a hospital admission or you are planning a trip away and you’d like a little extra support, we can support with any of the following instances:
- Hospital discharge – If you need support in regaining your independence after a hospital admission
- Emergencies – When your regular caregiver has a family emergency
- Short breaks – Enabling you to enjoy a break away with some support along the way
- One-off occasions – When you want to be with your family during milestone celebrations, such as a wedding or birthday party
Award-winning training for our Manchester team
With 30 years’ experience under our belt, we’re proud to be one of the leading home care providers in the UK. Ever since our inception in 1989, we’ve been providing dedicated, person-centred care at home to each of our customers; but none of this would have been possible if it wasn’t for our remarkable carers.
The qualities it takes to become a carer cannot always be taught, and it is the kindness, selflessness and empathy of our carers that keeps Helping Hands at the forefront of the care industry.
Our fine-tuned recruitment process ensures that all of our carers receive full background checks, including Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) screenings. With only 2% of applicants being accepted for employment, you can rest assured that your care is provided by only the best.
