A few months in, and our North Lakes Companionship Cafe is already changing things.

We've watched friendships reunite after over a year apart. We've heard conversations that matter, like local residents working together with their MP to get the bus route through the village. We've shared handy hints on getting grease and stains out of clothes. We've connected with people who want to know more about what we do.

This is what community looks like. Real connections. Real conversations. Real impact.

Some of you have already asked us about our services, and that means the world. But whether you're here for the company, the chat, or the practical wisdom, you're part of something special.

The next Companionship Cafe dates at Penrith Morrisons are:

14th September
12th October
9th November

Come join us. And if you know anyone who isn't on social media who'd like to join us, please share this with them.

Our Care Professionals don't just provide care. They support people to live life their way. Whether that's an outing like Harvey enjoyed, exploring a local place, following a hobby, or joining a social group, we're here to make it happen.

This is what rewarding work looks like. Every day you're not just helping someone, you're enabling them to do the things that matter to them.

If this role sounds like something you'd like to do, get in touch. We're hiring Care Professionals who want to make a real difference.

☕️💛 What a wonderful Monday at our Companionship Café!

We had an amazing turnout, with lots of friendly faces, great conversations and plenty of smiles. It was especially lovely to see two friends reconnect after more than a year apart. 🥰

Moments like these remind us just how important companionship, friendship and connection can be.

If you missed our last café, don’t worry! We’d love for you to join us at our next Companionship Café on Monday, 14th September. 🌷

Come along for a cuppa, a chat and some friendly company. Whether you’re meeting new people or catching up with old friends, everyone is welcome!

We can’t wait to see you there! 💕☕️

Most care jobs rush you from door to door. Here, you get an hour. Time that's not hurried. Time that's genuinely meaningful.
We match you to clients based on shared interests. That means real connections. You're not just turning up to complete tasks. You're showing up to make a difference to someone who values you.

Every day is different. Morning routines. Meals prepared together. Medication support. Walks. Conversations. All of it tailored to the person in front of you. Every day matters.

No care experience needed. If you've worked in hospitality, supported family members, or you're looking for purpose after a life change, that's the foundation we build on. Warm. Reliable. Care about people. We'll support you with everything else. Training fully funded.
