Home care in Pickering
Visiting care and home care in Pickering
Pickering is ideally situated near some of the UK’s best beaches, forests, attractive market towns, and exciting attractions. With plenty to see and do in the local area it’s no surprise Helping Hands wanted to get to know Pickering better! The whole family can be kept entertained thanks to Pickering’s proximity to the stunning Yorkshire coast and North Yorkshire Moors, with heritage links that go back to William the Conqueror and Oliver Cromwell.
We decided to explore this beautiful county better because we knew there would be other people in the area who didn’t know how we can help. With our visiting and live-in care services providing the care and support to keep you independent in the home you love, and fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales, we really are the home care experts.

Regional Care Director
As the Regional Care Director for the north, I am responsible for all types of care delivery to our customers - whether it be live-in care or our hourly service. My role involves ensuring that our carers deliver a consistent and seamless high quality of care to our customers. I manage a team of dedicated, hardworking people who strive to deliver a fantastic service. Following a highly successful career in welfare to work, recruitment and training, I wanted to look at a fresh challenge, and following some research and numerous conversations, I believed that the care sector would be a good fit and that I could easily transfer my skills and experience into this role.

Other care we provide
High quality home care in Pickering
Whether you need us for a short respite stay now and again, daily support, are thinking about longer-term care, or would prefer someone around the clock, we can be there for you and your loved ones’ reassurance. Because we’ve been providing exceptional care in our customers’ homes since 1989, we have the knowledge and expertise to ensure you live as comfortably as possible at home. Despite growing to manage 150 branches, we still hold dear the values for providing superlative care that we were founded with more than 30 years ago.
24/7 live in care support
Live-in care means a carer lives in your home with you around the clock. This can be such a reassurance to both you and your loved ones that you’re never left alone, while making sure that your daily routine continues uninterrupted. Your carer will be able to undertake every aspect of your housekeeping, laundry, personal care, and medication requirements, while making sure you eat nutritious meals, keep hydrated, and enjoy your local community. You may have always enjoyed a walk in the park, going to the theatre, or meeting friends, and your carer will be able to support you to live as you always used to.
Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Pickering
Care agencies are referral organisations who have no real involvement in your care journey. They’ll charge you a fee to find you a self-employed carer, or worse, expect you to employ them yourself, when all you should be focussing on is living well. Helping Hands has never been a care agency; we’re a private home care company who source, recruit, employ, and train our carers ourselves, because that way we can be sure that our care and support always remains of a consistently high level.
Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Pickering
We’re very particular about the people we employ as carers. We put them through their paces, expecting them to have natural qualities of compassion and kindness, as well as a dedication to the wellbeing of others. It’s not all one-sided though; we support our carers to be the best they can be for our customers, giving them regular opportunities to refresh their skills, build on their knowledge, and develop their careers. After all, motivated carers will provide the highest quality care at all times, and we’re dedicated to helping them do that.
