Visiting care and home care in Downham Market
Nicknamed ‘Gingerbread Town’, Downham Market is one of the oldest market towns in Norfolk. It’s full of historical buildings, restaurants and plenty of places to visit. Thanks to our compassionate carers, our customers can continue to explore the fruits of Downham Market.

For added reassurance, we are monitored by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales. This means our services are regularly inspected to ensure we provide compassionate, well-led and responsive care.

Branch Care Manager
I’ve worked in home care for 15 years, starting as a community carer while at university, and I fell in love with the industry. I’m proud to be with Helping Hands, where we prioritize quality care and kindness. My role is rewarding when I see the positive impact we have on clients and their families. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, spending time with family, and reading for relaxation.

Other care we provide
High quality home care in Downham Market
We provide exceptional care at home so our customers can continue to live life on their terms without having to compromise their routine and independence. Whether you are looking for support with health and personal care, shopping and errands or companionship, you can count on our carers to be there when you need them.
24/7 live in care support
If you prefer to have round-the-clock care, we also offer live-in care. This is when one of our carers stays in your home 24/7. So, if you need help going to the toilet during the night or running errands throughout the day, you’ll have support whenever you need it.
We understand it can be daunting having someone new come into your home, let alone live with you. However, our carers genuinely are the most compassionate and empathetic individuals you’ll meet. They really do become true companions.
Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Downham Market
At Helping Hands, we have never been a care agency; we deliver care as a private home care provider. This is so we can ensure continuity of care where you receive care from the same familiar faces. Plus, you won’t be faced with any referral fees or extra costs; we will be upfront with you from the word go.
Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Downham Market
