Home care in Winchester
Visiting care and home care in Winchester
Winchester was the first capital city of England and developed from the Roman town of Venta Belgarum, a former Iron Age settlement. Until the Norman conquest, Winchester remained the most important city in England. While no longer the capital, Winchester is still a very important city historically, not least for its stunning grade I listed Norman cathedral, consecrated in 1093.
We at Helping Hands felt we should explore the area more, which is why we wanted to extend our presence and ensure that people are aware of our bespoke and fully flexible visiting and live-in care services.

Meet the Winchester care team
Branch Care Manager
I am responsible for delivering person-centred care and ensuring that I have the right people in my team so that this happens. I joined the care industry as it is so rewarding helping so many people as possible to remain independent at home. I have a great team beside me here in Southampton and I am supported by the whole team at Helping Hands. In my spare time I enjoy seeing my children, my grandchildren, and baking cakes.

Other services we provide at this branch
-
Home care Winchester
-
When you choose visiting care from us you get the benefit of our 30 years of experience as well as our compassionate carers who will come to your home at prearranged times from just 30 minutes a week. Whether you need support with your mobility, medication, preparing meals, housework, laundry or personal care, we can do all this and more.
-
Winchester live-in care
-
Live-in care will see one or more of our compassionate carers living in your own home with you, depending on the severity of your condition. Having someone living with you around the clock is a great comfort to both you and your loved ones, especially if they live some distance away, as your carer will be able to support you with every aspect of your daily routine.
-
Better than a care agency in Winchester
-
We’re better than a care agency because we are a fully regulated private home care company whose carers work tirelessly to support our customers every day of the year. We like to look after our carers while they do the same for our customers, and consequently we employ all of our carers directly, never expecting them to be self-employed and facing the uncertainties that it can bring.
-
Domiciliary care at home
-
Domiciliary care is care at home, and for over 30 years we’ve been providing exceptional visiting and live-in care to our thousands of customers. If you need extra support at home to live your daily life then you may feel you have no choice but residential care, however that’s not the case. At home, you get to dictate what time you eat, go to bed, and every other part of your day, benefitting your emotional, as well as physical health.
-
Dementia care at home
-
Remaining in familiar and comforting surroundings for dementia care can be highly beneficial, both physically and emotionally, as being near to precious memories can help to reduce anxiety and confusion at times. Our dedicated dementia specialist carers will be able to support with every aspect of your or your loved one’s daily routine and we can even offer clinical support or nursing if the time comes that it’s required.
-
Immediate relief respite care
-
When you need some short-term support for whatever reason, respite care from Helping Hands can be a preferable and cost-effective alternative to residential care. Perhaps your regular carer needs to take a well-earned break, or your family carers want to take a holiday; regardless of the circumstances, we can support you effectively until your regular carer returns. Even in an emergency we can be with you quickly, usually within 24 hours.
-
Elderly care for extra support
-
If you’re living with age-related frailties or the effects of an accident or ongoing condition you may benefit from some elderly care at home. Our amazing carers can come to your home on either a visiting or live-in basis and ensure that every aspect of your daily routine is supported with personalised, one-to-one care. Whether it’s housework, personal care, preparing you meals or something else, we can ensure that you get to live your best life at home.
-
Fully trained carers in Winchester
-
Our fully trained carers in Winchester will ensure that you get to live your best life possible in the home that you love and don’t want to leave. We carefully select our carers so that we only take on the most compassionate people, as the rest can be taught but kindness and a passion for care can’t be. We also screen our carers through the Disclosure and Barring Service to ensure you’re kept as safe as possible at home and because we’re fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales we guarantee you’ll be cared for to the highest standards possible.
