Good Life Helpers live close by and are available to provide help and companionship to older members
Submit a simple form to tell us what help you need, either for yourself or a loved one. We match you with a suitable Helper and arrange a free first visit. You get up to 2 hours of free help during which you can get to know your Helper. It's important that you enjoy each other's company and find common interests. Agree a visit schedule with your Helper. Once you're happy with your Helper, a regular visit schedule is arranged to suit your needs. It's completely flexible and you can change or pause it any time. Every Helper is thoroughly vetted, trained and insured. The UK population is ageing very fast and there are not enough professional carers to cover their needs. At the same time, many adult children live far from their parents or lead very busy lives, making it difficult for them to provide regular support.To solve this, we connect older adults and their families with caring and trusted people from their local community, the Helpers, who provide their services for a reasonable fee
