So proud that The Times sent a journalist and a photographer to interview our carers.

THE TIMES no less!!!

It's our second article in The Times in the last few months talking about our "little" homecare company and it means the world to us.

Thank you Eileen, Pam and David for talking about your work and thank you to our client who instantly recognised her story about going to the Gym!

Starting a later-life career as a carer, talks about some of the many reasons Seniors Helping Seniors recruits outstanding carers. Ours is a peer-to-peer care model where life experience is valued and championed.

Other reasons our work appeals to professional carers looking for less stressful and better paid work where they will be properly supported to do their very best every day.

Thank you Jack Simpson! Thank you The Times and The Sunday Times Thank you to our amazing teams

It's Falls Prevention Week (22nd - 26th September) this week. Did you know that many falls among older adults can be prevented? This week is all about raising awareness and taking steps to keep our loved ones safe and independent at home.

At Seniors Helping Seniors our wonderful caregivers do so much more than just help with daily tasks – they're champions for safety! Here’s how they provide peace of mind:
• Safer Homes: Our caregivers can help spot potential hazards like loose rugs or poor lighting and assist with simple solutions.
• Gentle Mobility Support: Whether it's walking around the house or getting up from a chair, a caring hand can make all the difference, reducing the risk of a tumble.
• Assistance with Daily Tasks: From getting dressed to meal prep, having a little help can prevent risky situations.
• Friendly Presence: Knowing there’s someone there provides comfort and an extra pair of eyes to help avoid accidents.

💡 Quick Home Safety Tips:

• Clear Pathways: Keep floors free of clutter and remove loose rugs.
• Brighten Up: Ensure all areas, especially stairs and bathrooms, are well-lit.
• Grab Bars: Consider installing grab bars in showers and next to toilets for extra support.
• Wear Proper Shoes: Avoid walking in just socks or loose slippers.

Let's make our homes safer, together! If you're concerned about a loved one, reach out to us in to see how we can help. seniorshelpingseniors.co.uk

Today is World Alzheimer's Day (21st September). 💜 A day dedicated to raising crucial awareness and understanding about Alzheimer's disease and other dementias.
This condition affects millions worldwide, and behind every statistic is a person and their family navigating immense challenges. At Seniors Helping Seniors we stand with all those touched by dementia.
Our mission extends to providing compassionate, understanding, and dignified support to individuals living with dementia, and their families.
We believe in focusing on what truly matters: maintaining dignity, fostering connection, and supporting quality of life for as long as possible. Our trained caregivers, many of whom have lived experiences that give them unique empathy, provide support that includes:
• Familiar routines: Helping to create a predictable and comforting environment.
• Engaging activities: Gentle activities that stimulate memory and bring joy.
• Patient companionship: Offering understanding and a steady presence.
If you or a loved one are navigating the journey of dementia, know you're not alone. Here are some helpful resources:
