Visiting care and home care in Stratford-upon-Avon
Helping Hands have a dedicated team of carers in Stratford-upon-Avon to provide person-centred care that supports you at home and out in the local community. As the birthplace of possibly the most famous writer in the English Language, William Shakespeare, Stratford-upon-Avon is bursting with history and culture.
But if you’re struggling to enjoy that culture, a visiting or live-in carer may make your everyday life much easier. We began in Warwickshire in 1989, so for 36 we’ve been supporting people in the area to receive the best condition-led care available.

Hi, I'm Ashley and I am the BCM of Warwickshire. I have been a manager with the company for 2 years and I have worked in the live in team and now the hourly team. I am proud to work here because I get to see the difference, we can make with people staying at home and keeping all what they love around them. Outside of work I enjoy cooking and being with family.

Hi, I'm Adam and as Regional Care Director, I'm responsible for making sure that all the customers we help are looked after brilliantly. In order to do this, we need to have the very best carers and support teams there for them so that they can thrive within Helping Hands and do what they do best: care. I think we do everything possible to really understand our customers' needs and then do everything possible to find the right carer for them. Our carers do a wonderful job, and they are special people who are 'hardwired' to care.

Domiciliary care with you in control

When you’re living alone you can be at risk of loneliness, however with our companionship that won’t happen.
