Quality Companionship Care for You or Your Loved One
- Thoughtfully matched companions providing warm, consistent support
- Highly-rated care that reduces loneliness and promotes well-being
At Right at Home, our tailored companionship services help people across the UK feel connected, supported and valued in their own homes. Whether it’s sharing a cup of tea and a chat, getting out to your favourite garden centre, or simply enjoying a walk around the block, we’re here to make everyday life more joyful through trusted companion care at home.
Tailored Companionship: What We Offer
Companionship care from Right at Home is about so much more than just being there. It’s about being present. It’s about connection. Our Carers are specially chosen not just for their training, but for their warmth, empathy and ability to make someone’s day better.
- Personalised Care & Support Plans: We create in-home companionship and care service plans that reflect each Client’s interests, needs and personality. From a weekly visit for a friendly chat to daily support for getting out and about, we make sure every visit is meaningful.
- Genuine Friendship and Emotional Support: Many people we support live alone or have limited social contact. Our carer companions can be that familiar, trusted face who checks in, listens, laughs, and provides emotional comfort — whether it’s over a crossword puzzle or a walk through the park.
- Practical Help and Encouragement: Support may include assistance with shopping, accompanying you to appointments, or encouraging you to rejoin a local book club or community group. Sometimes it’s the small things – like remembering how you take your tea or your favourite radio show – that make the biggest difference.
- Respite for Family: We’re also here for the family. Our companionship services offer reassurance and short breaks for family members, knowing their loved one is in good company and good hands.
Thousands of families, just like yours, trust and rely on Right at Home to provide home care companionship to their loved ones. We provide bespoke support for every Client. Our team of professional companions for old and young people alike primarily offer much needed friendship and rapport. We can help with routine household tasks or simply be there as a friend to share interests and enjoy hobbies with.

- Everyday Living: Shopping, cooking, organising appointments and light domestic tasks

How much does companionship care services cost?
The price of our homecare will depend on the Client’s individual needs and the number of hours of care provided. We recommend a minimum of one hour for any care visit to provide safe and effective care provision. But we can discuss how regularly you’d like these visits before providing an estimated cost of care.

What does a companion for the elderly do?
Our companions are not just available for elderly support. We support adults of any age with everyday tasks and daily activities. In doing so, companion care enables continued independence and supports wellbeing.
Most of all, our Carers are there to listen and interact. Private companion services can prevent feelings of isolation and loneliness, which can have a big impact on a person’s health.
