Visiting care and home care in Taunton
With over 1,000 years of religious and military history, Taunton has a plethora of activity and culture within its grounds. And within easy reach of the stunning Somerset scenery, there is lots to see and do in and around the town, but it wouldn’t be complete without a dedicated team of friendly and professional carers from one of the leading home care providers in the UK -Helping Hands.
Whether you require a weekly visit to check-in and ensure you’re keeping up with your medication and household tasks, to full-time live-in care for those who require a companion to rely on around-the-clock, there is a private carer prepared to relieve you off niggling chores and offer the support you need to maintain your wellbeing and uphold your independence.

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