Cold weather and darker days can make everyday jobs feel harder. Simple tasks like changing bedding, carrying shopping or keeping on top of the washing can become a real worry.

Our Care Professionals can help with light housework, laundry, meal preparation, taking bins out and a bit of gentle sorting and tidying.

A little practical help can make home feel easier to manage. If you would like to chat about home help for yourself or a loved one, Home Instead is here to help.

Cold homes can affect both health and mood, especially in January.
If you are visiting an older loved one, notice whether the main rooms feel warm, if they have layers of clothing to hand and if hot drinks are easy to make.

Encourage them to:
• Heat the room they use most
• Keep slippers with good grip by the bed or chair
• Have a blanket nearby for extra warmth

If you are worried, speak to their GP or local support services for advice.

Our Care Professionals ensure that your favourite sports are never missed! Did you catch John and Ben last weekend? They’re the stars of our new idents for Love Your Weekend. John will be the first to say that in cricket, the first over is sacred! A moment he can share with his Care Professional.

Looking for work that fits around the school run or other commitments?

As a Care Professional with Home Instead, you will visit older adults at home for unhurried calls. This could be helping with breakfast, supporting with a shower, preparing lunch, or popping to the shops together.

We offer full training, shadowing and support from our local office, so you feel confident in your role.

If you are caring, organised and able to commit to regular part-time hours, please get in touch with our team.

January can feel very quiet once the festive season is over, especially if someone is spending long hours at home on their own.

With Home Instead, companionship visits can include a chat over a cuppa, a board game, a short walk or watching a favourite programme together.

Regular friendly visits can break up the week and give families reassurance that someone is popping in. If this sounds helpful, our team at Home Instead is here to talk things through.

Happy New Year from all of us at Home Instead.

Thank you to the older adults, families and local organisations who have trusted and welcomed our team this year.

As we step into 2026, we will keep focusing on the small, everyday things that matter: a friendly chat, a safe trip out, help around the home and support for family members too.

Wishing you a peaceful and healthy year ahead.
