Visiting care and home care in Orpington
Orpington is an historic town that was once a small country village surrounded by soft fruit farms, hop fields and orchards, but is now part of Greater London’s borough of Bromley.
Helping Hands are no strangers to a historic past as we’ve been supporting people to live comfortably and independently at home for over 30 years. We offer two different types of home care to our customers, visiting and live-in, depending on your needs and condition. Our visiting carers will come to you at prearranged times as often or as infrequently as you require and carry out your care from a personalised support plan that will contain exactly how you like to be cared for. If you prefer live-in care, one of our carers will reside in your house and provide around the clock care, along with companionship so that you’re never alone in your home.

Quality care at home
From short term support to longer term visits and live-in care, our Orpington 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.
Over 155 branches across the UK means we're local to you.
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.
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.
