Overall Experience
I was delighted to have a review, the first in four years. The interviewer was professional but friendly, knew how to listen. I was given the opportunity to express my opinions of the Bluebird service. I'm very grateful to Bluebird for helping me to be as independent as possible, taking care of the important hygiene tasks I am physically unable to do (bathroom/ hoovering /removal of household rubbish). Bluebird looked after me during my first cancer treatment when I was literally helpless. I chose Bluebird because I saw how compassionately my friend/neighbour was treated when she became terminally ill carers (and trainees) come and go but the best, including my present helper, is thorough, showing a supportive interest in me as a person. Mine always asks "Is there something else I may help you with?". Schedule by post is most helpful.

It would be helpful to know the appropriate person to contact if needed: up till recently, email replies were not always reliable.

Peter Slough Job Title: Managing Director and Owner Joined: 2021
Peter Slough
Peter’s first experience of arranging care was fraught and riddled with anxiety. “Finding care at short notice and trying to work with companies with no customer service ethos was frustrating. That’s when I thought there must be a better way!” Fast forward to 2023, and with over a decade of industry experience, Peter owns and manages three London-based Bluebird Care offices.

After university, he worked for an NGO in New Delhi, using his law degree to change government policy and improve lives. This passion for transformative change permeates his operation of Bluebird Care Richmond & Twickenham. “We are changing lives for the better, providing local residents the opportunity to create their very best in-home support structure, delivered by Bluebirds. Requiring care and support can make one feel quite vulnerable. We aim to make choosing care an empowering moment, one that unlocks positive outcomes with the ultimate goal of remaining safe and happy at home.”

With his first foray into arranging care for a family member ending in disappointment, Peter notes, “Our most important ethos is to provide professional care that keeps each customer at the heart of their service… care that we would be happy for our own families to receive. Delivering a consistently compassionate, highly skilled, professional service is why two-thirds of our new customers come to us via personal recommendation.”

Peter and his young family enjoy exploring the borough with outings including Kew Gardens in the summer and ice skating at Hampton Court Palace in the winter.

Tim Rowland-Jones Job Title: Managing Director and Owner Joined: 2021
Tim Rowland-Jones
Tim’s wealth of experience in business management informs his oversight of Bluebird Care Richmond & Twickenham. Having helmed a multi-channel retail business before opening his first Bluebird Care office, Tim says, “I don’t think many people dream of running a home care company… I certainly didn’t! But when my grandfather’s dementia worsened, I became acutely aware of the need for exceptional, empathetic care. This lived experience pushed me to open my first Bluebird Care office and set the high standards we’ve maintained for over a decade.”

Insisting his colleagues are trained beyond industry standard, each Care Assistant is encouraged to develop specialisms ranging from dementia and post-op rehabilitation to Parkinson’s, MND, complex care, challenging behaviour, palliative care and nutrition and hydration. “We aim to match each customer to their ideal Care Assistants by personality and expertise. Whilst our customers are at the centre of what we do, our Bluebirds are the heartbeat of the company - their kindness, compassion, and professionalism set us apart.”

As the owner of three Bluebird Care offices across London and the South West, Tim can’t imagine working in any other industry. “It’s an unbeatable feeling, being involved in a local business that changes lives. My father is now receiving live-in care, which has been life-changing, so I am passionate about providing this service to Richmond and Twickenham residents.”

Spotting the Richmond Park deer has become a favourite pastime of Tim’s young family, as has feeding the ducks on Barnes Pond.

Sylwia Sobolewska
