Visiting care and home care in Stowmarket

Granted a market charter by Edward III in 1347, and with a bi-weekly market still held there to this day, Stowmarket is a market town between Ipswich and Bury St Edmunds. The town’s name is from the Old English word stow, which means ‘principal place’. While we have a noteworthy history at Helping Hands, it’s nowhere near as long as Bury St Edmund’s is, which is why we wanted to get to know the town better. If you’re not familiar with what we do at Helping Hands, we provide high quality home care for our customers who wish to remain living in the place that means everything to them. There’s no need to go and live in a care home because you need additional support, as we’ll come to you and give you all the help you need to continue living as independently as possible.

Quality care at home

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

When you need a little extra support to make your days easier, visiting care in Stowmarket sees our amazing carers go the extra mile for our customers every single day. You might enjoy keeping your home clean and tidy or prefer walking in nature, but whatever your interests are and however you need our help, your carer will assist you to make the most of every day. They’ll also help you to eat well, manage your medication, be confident in your mobility, and all the other daily tasks that will keep you comfortable at home.

24/7 live in care support

Live-in care takes support at home to another level. Having someone living in your home with you will mean you’ll never be concerned about loneliness or being on your own, which is reassurance for your family too. Your live-in carer will undertake all the daily tasks you want completed but they’ll also be there to keep you company whenever you want, something that intermittent carers just don’t usually have time to do. Your carer won’t make you feel as if your home isn’t your own though; they’ll be discreet at all times and give you time alone when you want it.

Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Stowmarket

We’re not a care agency at Helping Hands, we’re a private home care company and always have been. You may think ‘what’s the difference’ but it is significant. A care agency doesn’t employ its own carers and rarely gets involved in the management of the care packages, rather they ‘match’ you with a self-employed carer or expect you to employ them yourself. We’re very different – we are a private company who recruit and employ all of our carers ourselves and own all of our branches, meaning a bespoke experience for you and your loved ones.

Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Stowmarket

Since 1989, we’ve been delivering the highest quality care in our customers’ own homes, which is why we’re considered the UK’s home care specialists. Part of our appeal is the fact we find our carers ourselves without relying on outside agencies, then we screen them carefully to ensure they’re the type of people who should be in your home. We also have our own training academy at Helping Hands which enables us to design a bespoke learning experience for each of our employees. This means we can equip them with the skills they’ll need to do their job effectively and build on what they already know.
