Home care in Ilfracombe
Visiting care and home care in Ilfracombe
Ilfracombe has its beginnings in the Iron Age, when the dominant Hillsborough (formerly Hele’s Barrow) hill was settled upon. Ilfracombe has a strong artistic reputation, with an annual arts festival and several art galleries; in addition, many famous thespians, painters and literary figures have at one time or another lived in the town.
Whether you’re looking for visiting care from just 30 minutes a week or you’d prefer around the clock support with live-in care, our compassionate carers will support you to remain in the home you love while living as independently as possible. Your routines and preferences will always be at the centre of your bespoke support plan, which has the flexibility to change whenever your needs dictate it.

Regional Care Director
Hi, I’m Adam and as Regional Care Director, I’m responsible for making sure that all the customers we help day-in day-out across the South West and South Wales 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.

Other services we provide at this branch
-
Ilfracombe live-in care
-
When you choose live-in care from Helping Hands you don’t just receive the benefit of our three decades of home care experience; you also get the support of a compassionate and professional carer who will care for you to the highest quality while you remain in your own home. Whether you’d appreciate support with personal care, meal preparation, mobility, housework or a variety of other tasks, our carers will regularly go above and beyond to ensure you live your very best life possible.

Better than a care agency in Ilfracombe
-
A care agency is very different to a private home care company and you will notice the difference straight away if you choose care from Helping Hands. Care agencies often don’t employ their carers directly, they expect them to be self-employed and deal with the associated legalities themselves, which can only take up their time and mean they are less focussed on the most important thing – your care. We aren’t and never have been a care agency, so talk to us today about our expert care delivery.
-
Emergency care
-
When you need emergency care it can be a very stressful and fraught time. Whether it’s because you’re being faced with an unexpected hospital discharge or your carer has to leave suddenly, either you or your loved ones will be calling various companies, trying to discover who has capacity to support you at home, with no guarantees of their suitability. Helping Hands’ friendly Ilfracombe team will be able to put your worries to rest, as we have over 30 years of experience supporting our customers to live their very best life in the comfort of their own home.
-
Private care in Ilfracombe
-
Knowing that you’re receiving care from a private care company reassures you that you’re in receipt of the very best care possible from a company who will always safeguard your wellbeing and promote your independence. Helping Hands have been a private care company since our inception in 1989, and we continue to demonstrate the very highest standards possible when delivering care to our thousands of customers. Whether you are in receipt of visiting or live-in care, our compassionate carers deliver our bespoke care packages with enthusiasm and professionalism, meaning you get to live your best life possible in the home you love.
-
Overnight care
-
Whether you find it impossible to sleep at night and would welcome some companionship while the rest of your household are asleep, or perhaps you have complex care needs that mean you require support around the clock, our amazing carers can deliver your bespoke package of overnight care for you, regardless of the hour. You may prefer visiting care where your carer will come to you just for the night, or perhaps you’d appreciate a full-time, live-in carer, but however we deliver your care, you’ll find your constant support makes such a difference to your life and you’ll quickly consider your carer a welcome friend.
