Helping Hands Home Care Our home care services can be short or long term, and as often as you need. Call our team to find out more.

Whether you’re looking for ongoing assistance from a full-time live-in carer or the flexibility of a visiting carer, we can provide the right level of support for you. We're a family run home care company that has been enabling people to live independently at home since 1989. Our Home Care in Chester experts supports adults of all ages in and around the city, from visiting care little and often, all the way through to 24 hour live in care in Chester and nurse led clinical support. Our service is fully regulated, and each of our carers go through expert training before starting work, with regular supervisions and extra training as needed. We're supporting people who are living with conditions such as dementia, Parkinson's, spinal injuries and multiple sclerosis, to name a few - and even people who just need some extra help at home, whether it's housekeeping or cooking meals.

💜 Could a little extra support help someone stay at home? 🏡

Sometimes, it’s the little things that tell us a loved one might benefit from a helping hand.

Have you noticed a parent, grandparent or someone close to you struggling a little more with everyday life? Perhaps they could benefit from some extra support, reassurance or simply a friendly face.

Here are a few signs that a little extra help might make a difference:

💜 Household tasks becoming harder – keeping on top of cleaning, laundry or preparing meals.

💜 Changes in personal care – finding washing, dressing or maintaining a daily routine more difficult.

💜 Missed meals or medication – needing a little support to stay on track with daily routines.

💜 Feeling lonely or isolated – spending more time alone or missing social interaction.

💜 Reduced confidence or mobility – feeling less comfortable getting out and about or managing everyday activities.

💜 Family feeling stretched – loved ones doing their best but finding it difficult to provide all the support needed.

Recognising these signs doesn't mean someone has to give up their independence. In fact, the right support can help people continue living safely, comfortably and confidently in the home they love. 🏡💜

At Helping Hands Chester, we provide person-centred home care tailored to each individual's needs. Whether it's help with personal care, preparing meals, companionship, shopping or getting out into the community, we're here to help people live life on their own terms.

💬 Have you ever noticed how a little help can make a big difference? Share your thoughts in the comments, or get in touch with our friendly team to find out how we could support you or someone you love.

💜 MEET THE TEAM FRIDAY – A LITTLE BEHIND THE SCENES!

👋Meet Marc!

Last Saturday, my parents came to visit me in Chester, and we had plans to spend some time together. However, when youre on-call, sometimes work has other ideas! 😂

I had to pop into the office to sort a few things out for our clients and carers, so my parents kindly left me to it and went to grab a coffee while I got everything sorted. ☕

Its a little reminder that care doesn't always fit neatly into Monday to Friday, 9–5. Being on-call means being there when our clients and team need support, whether that's during the week or on a Saturday.

As a care coordinator, making sure our clients receive the support they need and our carers feel supported is a huge part of the job. While it doesn't always go to plan, knowing you're helping to make a difference makes it worthwhile. 💜

A big thank you to my parents for being so understanding, too! I promise we did manage to fit in some family time! 😂❤️

At Helping Hands Chester, were proud to support our clients to live well in the homes and communities they love.

🧠💜 MYTH OR FACT? How much do you know about dementia?

Let’s put your knowledge to the test! 👀

We’ve got 4 statements below — but there’s a catch…

👇 Before you scroll down, decide whether each one is a MYTH or FACT!

1️⃣ Dementia is just a normal part of getting older.

🤔 MYTH or FACT?

2️⃣ Everyone with dementia loses their memory.

🤔 MYTH or FACT?

3️⃣ Someone with dementia can’t continue living at home.

⏸️ STOP SCROLLING!

Have you made your guesses? 👀

Comment your answers below — 1️⃣ 2️⃣ 3️⃣ 4️⃣ — and then scroll down to see how you did! 👇

💡 HERE ARE THE ANSWERS!

1️⃣ MYTH ❌

2️⃣ MYTH ❌
Memory loss can be a symptom of dementia, but it can also affect communication, thinking, mood, behaviour and everyday activities.

3️⃣ MYTH ❌
With the right support, many people living with dementia can continue to live safely and meaningfully in their own homes. 🏡💜

4️⃣ FACT ✅
Patience, reassurance, familiar routines, kindness and person-centred support can all make a real difference to someone's quality of life.

✨ So, how did you do?

Did you get 4/4? 3/4? 2/4? Or did we catch you out? 👀😂

Meet the Team Friday 💙

This week, we're delighted to introduce you to Deborah from our care team.

Deborah has been part of Helping Hands Chester for 7 years, and in that time, she's made a real difference to the people she cares for. She loves being part of a team who truly care, and that warmth shows in everything she does.

What Deborah enjoys most about her role is meeting our customers and taking the time to really get to know them. I

In her spare time, Deborah loves spending time with her family and walking her dogs. 🐕

Thank you, Deborah, for all you do. We're so lucky to have you! 🌟

Alzheimer’s never has to erase the person. Behind every diagnosis is a person with a lifetime of memories, experiences, relationships and things that they love. That’s why person-centred care is so important.
🏡From familiar routines and favourite places, small personal touches can make a big difference to someone living with Alzheimer’s. Our carers take the time to understand the customer behind the diagnosis, including helping them to feel safe, valued, respected and supported at home.
💜 Because every person deserves to be cared for with expert, compassionate care. 👉 Find out more about our personalised home care at helpinghandshomecare.co.uk

💜 LET’S SETTLE THIS ONE… What makes a GREAT carer? 👀

At Helping Hands Chester, we think being a great carer is about all those little things that can make someone's day that bit brighter.

But we want to know what YOU think! 👇

If you had to choose just ONE, what matters most?

🌟 Kindness – always having a caring word
🧘 Patience – because everyone has their own pace
🚗 Reliability – being someone people can count on
😂 Humour – because sometimes laughter really is the best medicine
❤️ Compassion – genuinely understanding how someone feels
💬 Communication – listening as well as talking

Or perhaps there's something we've missed? 🤔

Tell us your choice in the comments! 👇

And if you're a carer, we'd especially love to hear what you think makes someone brilliant at their job. 💜

Because at Helping Hands Chester, it's not just about providing care.

It's about building relationships, creating moments that matter and helping people live well in the places they call home.

Helping people live well in the homes and communities they love. 💜

Meet The Team Friday is back!

This week, we're shining the spotlight on one of our lovely care colleagues here at Helping Hands Home Care, Chester, meet Ella! 👋

Ella has been part of the Helping Hands team for a number of years, balancing her role alongside her university studies. Since completing her Biology degree, she's gone on to become a full-time carer with us, and we are proud to be her first step into a care career.

When she's not busy caring for our lovely customers, Ella loves to keep active with ballroom dancing and going for runs.

In Ella's own words: "I love helping people, doing this job." It's that warmth and dedication is exactly what makes our carers so special.

Great care relies on great carers, and we're so grateful to have Ella as part of our Chester team, bringing kindness, care, and connection to every person she supports.

Thank you, Ella, for everything you do! 🙌

Today is World Alzheimer’s Day. Sometimes, it’s the little things that make the biggest difference. For someone living with Alzheimer’s or dementia, time, kindness and companionship can mean so much.
In this video, Jenny shares her experience of the difference Helping Hands carers can make at home. 🏡
Our carers are there to listen, reassure and bring a little extra kindness to someone’s day, while helping families feel supported too. Because care isn’t just about practical support. It’s about people, compassion and helping someone feel cared for. 💜

Together, this dedicated trio works tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure every person we support receives great care from great carers, because that's what Helping Hands is all about. From matching the right carer to the right family, to being on hand for a friendly chat whenever you need one, Sam, Marc and Debra are the heart of our Chester branch.

Great care relies on great carers, and it starts right here with a team that genuinely listens and understands what matters to you. 💙

Next week, we can't wait to introduce you to our wonderful carers! 🙌

Communication is about more than just words. For someone living with Alzheimer’s or dementia, finding the right words can sometimes be difficult. Small changes in how we communicate can make a big difference.
✨ Speak slowly and use short sentences
✨ Give them time to respond
✨ Maintain eye contact and use their name
✨ Stay calm and patient
✨ Avoid correcting or arguing
✨ Use gestures and visual cues when helpful
✨ Focus on feelings, not just facts
Most importantly, every conversation is an opportunity to help someone feel heard, respected and understood. 💜
