Thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we really do appreciate it.
It is great to know that the management...
I recently used your services as sit in care for my wife while I was having cataract surgery. The carers who came were very friendly and helpful and really looked after my wife who has alzheimers.I could not have asked for better care.I would recommend your company to anyone, you are simply the best.
Overall the service has been really good, the carers are realible, very friendly and on time. I feel confident with the level of care provided for my stepdad and Helping Hands are a vast improvement on the previous care agency that we had in place. If I have any concerns or queries, these are usually dealt with promptly by the team - either by the office-based team or the carers themselves. It is useful to receive the weekly rota so that my Stepdad has an idea of who is coming. Generally, we are very satified with the service.
Helping Hands are professional, courteous, friendly and caring. My aunt currently has 4 hrs a day with them and it has been a big improvement on what we had before. If you booked them for an hour, they stay the hour, which is what we want and more importantly what she is paying for.
Overall, I highly recommend anybody in the Wigan postcode to use this office and its staff, they are first class and nothing is too much trouble when visiting/caring for my aunt.
Helping Hands Wigan has been an absolute godsend for our family. Their flexibility is second to none-nothing ever feels like too much trouble, and they've always managed to adapt around our ever-changing needs without fuss or fanfare. That kind of responsiveness is rare and invaluable.
They're incredibly easy to get hold of-communication is always prompt, clear, and kind, which, in moments of stress or when you're juggling a thousand things, makes the world of difference.
But more than anything, it's the human touch that sets Helping Hands apart. Warm, capable, and quietly reassuring-they don't just "do the job," they care. And when life throws its inevitable curveballs, having that kind of support feels like a hand on your shoulder.
I honestly don't know what we'd have done without them.
The carers are respectful, really efficient and genuinely get to know our brothers needs.
After 12 months with Helping Hands we would highly recommend them they are head & shoulders ahead of other care providers we have used. Yes slightly more expensive than others but the increased value is worth the quality of care given
Excellent service, happy with all the carers and support staff. My mum feels relaxed and happy with everyone who's been over to see her. Communications have been good and we get the rotas before the sessions start each week, a few appointments have been delayed due to staff absence but we fully understand why.
Hi, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review! It's great to hear that you're so pleased with our service. We really appreciate your feedback. I shall pass your feedback about delays to calls to the Branch Manager, please accept our apologies for this. Best wishes.
Mum has been receiving care from Helping Hands Home Care for 6 months now and we honestly can't fault them. The rota we get each week is really good so mum knows who to expect and what time they are coming. Each and every carer seems to genuinely care and is willing to do anything mum asks, even just walking her up the road for some fresh air or sitting having a chat. It gives me peace of mind knowing that mum is happy with her carers and has no complaints.

Unlike other firms we've had in the past they never give the impression that they're having to rush what they're doing so they can hurry off to another appointment.
Best wishes.
Always reliable and communicate well with her, her husband and ourselves.
Friendly and approachable staff.
High standards.
