Overall Experience
We have been using Rivendell for nearly 2 years.
The service they provide is outstandingly excellent. Nothing is too much trouble, they go over and above to ensure that the care provided is best possible " fit" between client and carer . Everything is carefully considered and the support network is professional and friendly.

Would highly recommend the company.

Review from Paul R (Son of Client) published on 21 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother was supported by live-in carers from Rivendell for over 3 years before she recently died.
Throughout this time the care provided has been exemplary and they established a very close relationship with my mother going that extra mile on a regular basis.
In addition to providing great carers the management team were always proactive in looking to deal with any issues that occurred.

I would thoroughly recommend Rivendell.

Reply from Joshua Krygier, Director at Rivendell Care & Support

Thank you so much for taking the time to share these kind words. It was a privilege for our team to support your mother over the past three years, and we're truly grateful for the trust you placed in us. We're glad to hear that the carers were able to build such a meaningful relationship with her and that our management team could support you both throughout.

Overall Experience

Our experience of Rivendell Care, was in connection with my late Father's care. We found the staff at Rivendell lovely.. all the way through. Very helpful in setting up & the carers themselves, were very sympathetic towards my Father's needs. All who visited were very caring & proficient. We would have no hesitation in recommending Rivendell Care to others. We did our homework beforehand & the costs were also very reasonable, with a full range of services available.

Reply from Juliette Krygier, Director at Rivendell Care & Support

Thank you for your kind review Tony, it means a great deal to us to hear that our carers were able to provide comfort, support, and compassionate care for your father. We will make sure to share your feedback with the team, they will be touched to know that their efforts made a difference.

Review from Sara B (Cousin of Client) published on 22 July 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
For the past two years, Rivendell have been providing 24/7 care for my cousin who is in his late seventies and has Alzheimer's.
The carers have shown great patience and kindness and he has a good relationship with most of them. The management and office team are always ready to respond to my calls, answer queries and sort out the inevitable problems and concerns that arise from time to time.

I feel confident that I can trust Rivendell to provide the support that my cousin needs. This is especially important as I am his next of kin in the UK but I live over a hundred miles from his home.

Overall Experience

I have been using Rivendell for 6 months already. My mother has been in bed for three years, she can't move and even speak. Compared to many carers I used in the last three years, Rivendell is the best in the area. The agency is sending me a schedule next week each Friday. The carer is the best carer my family ever had. She is providing fantastic care, she is very polite and hard-working. I am very grateful to Rivendell for their support of my family.

This related to a short post-op stint for my 90-year-old mother and was in every way brilliant. The Director and Rivendell and the wonderful carer are all kind and excellent communicators. They know their stuff and do it beautifully. Very grateful and wholeheartedly recommend it. Thank you!

Overall Experience
Rivendell Care & support helped my mum to stay in her own home for many years. Even when things became more complicated I was able to speak to the manager who was incredibly supportive and worked hard to find the best personnel to look after my mum 24 hours a day.
My mum had to finally move to a care home in June which was very difficult at age 99 but everyone, from the owners to the manager and her lovely carer, helped me cope with the move.

I can't thank everyone enough.

Review from Henry I (Husband of Client) published on 3 October 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We were recommended to go to Rivendell, and they have been excellent - very caring of my wife, extremely efficient and flexible, and totally reliable. We started with one carer for twice per day, and as her medical condition deteriorated Rivendell have escalated their support to two carers three times per day and a night carer. Some of the individuals working for Rivendell have been truly exceptional - so kind and so considerate to both my wife and I. We are so grateful that we followed the original recommendation!

Overall Experience

We needed to find light touch night time care quickly for my 86 year old father who had lost confidence after having Covid. Rivendell was able to help us right away and has always been sensitive, efficient and flexible in their administrative dealings with us. The carer herself was very warm, calm and discreet. We will miss her now my father's needs have changed.

Rivendell Care & Support are an excellent provider from the office staff to the careers; they looked after every need for my mum after open heart surgery, always helpful, and my mum got excellent care from them; she had a really special bond with the carers. I will definitely recommend them for long and short-time care and will definitely use them again if needed. A big thank you to all of you.

Overall Experience

We have used Rivendell for some years for cleaning and light caring and find them excellent. It is good to have the same person week to week which builds up a relationship. Staff also seem to be very well supervised and managed. Plenty of backup and communication, including a useful regular newsletter. Altogether a very good, caring organisation, not the cheapest but worth it.

Review from Roger W (Nephew of Client) published on 20 January 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our aunt spent many years in Harmony Close. Originally she was self-sufficient able to run her life independently. However, following some deterioration owing to ongoing medical conditions and age we as a family sought help in the form of reliable carers. We were recommended to Rivendell who provided sincere and helpful attention. The service Rivendell provided was reliable meaning that we as a family need not have a concern about daily assistance, food preparation, personal hygiene, laundry duties, and cleaning. The amount of time needed to increase as our aunt was less able to do things herself. She was very happy and content with the staff who looked after her. The monitoring by the carers was also important in reporting changes in needs and health matters. There are inevitable hiccups but any queries were dealt with quickly and courteously. We are thankful for Rivendell making the task of care of our beloved aunt so efficient.

Thanking you in advance for the support once again.

Review from A B (Daughter of Client) published on 13 October 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Rivendell provided round the clock end of life care for my mother so that she could remain at home. They took care of her personal care and also cared for my father who has Parkinson's disease. The team looked after her with sensitivity, dignity and genuine care and provided emotional support as well as physical for the whole family. They were so professional that more than once they were mistaken for nurses by the GP. The management was extremely responsive and made regular calls to support the family.

After this they provided daily, and then twice daily, personal care visits for my father. During the Covid-19 lockdowns, this was his only face to face social contact and a vital lifeline for him. The carers were all reliable, friendly and professional and their Covid-19 precautions were exemplary. When his needs escalated and we had to increase his visits they arranged this at short notice. The management is excellent and very responsive. We would recommend them wholeheartedly.

Overall Experience

The high level of care offered by Rivendell is what separates this company from the rest. Having had a fair few negative experiences with other care home care agencies, I was more than pleasantly surprised by the attentiveness and genuine care offered by Rivendell. My grandmother has a long list of complex issues that are made just that little easier through the continued support we receive.
