Visiting care and home care in Shipley
Situated on the meandering route of the River Aire, the small town of Shipley thrived in the UK's 19th Century industrial boom and played a large part in the growth of the textile industry. What was once home to a number of powering water mills, Shipley is now home to one of the UK’s leading home care providers – Helping Hands.
From 30 minutes per week, our hourly visiting carers are on hand to offer the additional support you need to continue living independently at home. From help with household chores to accompanying you to the shops, to personal care, there is a Helping Hands carer in Shipley prepared to provide the assistance you need with the utmost empathy and compassion. For those who need more regular support, our live-in care team are available to match you with a carer most suited to your personality and interests, so that you have a companion to assist you around the clock.

Quality care at home
From short term support to longer term visits and live-in care, our Shipley 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.
