Care you fund yourself
Private Home Care can help if you are not eligible for government-subsidised care, are waiting for funding, or want to pay for additional support. Services are tailored to your own needs and priorities.

Private Home Care
Personalised, self-funded support to enjoy the comfort and independence of home.
About this support
Alongside funded care
Private support can complement a Support at Home package with additional hours or services outside your existing arrangements. Discuss what is suitable, the current fees and staff availability with the team.
Personal care with dignity
Support with showering, bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting and continence, getting in and out of bed, medication reminders and everyday routines. Your care plan is shaped around your needs.
Help around your home
Cleaning, laundry, light household tasks, meal preparation, shopping and garden maintenance can help you remain comfortable at home. Support with delivered meals excludes the cost of food.
Stay connected
Transport arrangements can help with medical appointments and social activities. Options may include a driver, transport vouchers or assistance getting to an activity, alongside group activities and social visits.
Care that understands you
Care Partners listen to you and your family to develop a person-centred plan. Services can be reviewed as needs change, within available funding and programme rules. Our team supports cultural needs; many staff speak Russian, Hebrew, Polish or Hungarian as well as English.
Funding and costs
Support may be arranged through an approved Support at Home package or privately, depending on the service and your circumstances. Ask the team about your options and the current price guide. Assessment, contributions and service availability must be confirmed for your situation.
Getting started
