Visiting care and home care in Wigston
Lying on the outskirts of the city of Leicester is Wigston, a district full of museums, green open spaces and unique shopping experiences. You many hear the thunder of horse hooves at Leicester Racecourse if you attend an exciting race day, or you may be immersed in the ethereal woodland environment of Leicester Botanical Gardens. Either way, you’ll be sure to find something to suit all. And if that wasn’t enough, there is also a team of Helping Hands carers who are able to provide you with flexible, empathetic care in your home.
From as little as 30-minute calls via our visiting care service or 24-hour support from our live-in care service, we'll work with you to find the right level of care that suits you, your health care needs and your timetable. Our aim is to enable you to stay living in your beloved home and retain your independence for as long as possible.

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