Review from Lysa B (Daughter of Client) published on 27 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Helping Hands have been wonderful, both the management team and the care staff. The carers have treated my Mum with dignity and respect at all times and it has really improved her wellbeing since they started to care for her, especially as there is a small consistent team of carers looking after her, rather than having different carers going in everyday (which would certainly create anxiety for her). The Management team have always been Professional, easily accessible and flexible in their approach to my Mums changing needs, needs which they carefully and thoughtfully consider and document. I can't thank Helping Hands enough for their individualised service to my precious Mum, we as a family, are so reassured that she is in the best and safest hands. Thank you all again.

Overall Experience
Helping Hands supported my mother in the last two years of her life, and I can say that they enabled my mother to stay in her own home and provided companionship visits and gave me comfort that someone was checking on on her even when she was able to do things for herself. So much of the visit was wellbeing as far as I was concerned, on top of helping her with showers etc.

I would like to give a personal thanks to the Ellesmere Port office staff who continued to adapt rotas whenever I asked them, and maintained that close contact with me . The carers were all lovely and got to know my mum. Thank you so much to the team, we couldnt have done it without you

Review from Betty S (Client / Service User) published on 5 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
After reluctantly accepting I needed some assistance getting shoes and socks and showering I contacted Helping Hands (Ellesmere Port)who arranged for someone to visit me at home with no obligation. I had very many questions for them and all were answered clearly without the use of crib sheets assuring me I would have a team of regular carers . At no time did I feel under pressure to sign up to them.
The team I have are all first class and dependable, with an understanding of my needs, encouraging independence, privacy and dignity at all times in a cheerful and courteous manner undertaking other tasks eg putting out the recycling and making my bed always asking if there is anything else I need before they leave.
I know I will need more care in the future and am happy and confident that I can depend on Helping Hands when the time comes

Staff and carers organised a Christmas carol concert for clients who were transported to the venue by carers who had volunteered to drive them.

Overall Experience

We have been using Helping Hands for a while now for my mother. All the carers are lovely, they are super caring, thoughtful and make sure that all mums needs are met whilst chatting and lifting mums spirits throughout the visit. We feel reassured and at ease knowing mum is getting the best care we can ask for. We would highly recommend Helping hands, from the first interaction nothing was too much trouble for them, they listened to us and our concerns and also to my mum and what she wanted, they don't just provide care they are company for loved ones as well. The special touch of one of my mums carers buying her flowers on her birthday was lovely. They go above and beyond on every visit and now my mum looks forward to seeing them every day.

We are absolutely delighted with the care provided for mum and highly recommend Helping Hands.
All of the carers are warm, friendly, efficient and extremely kind.
As a result mum responds very well to them and allows them to manage her personal care.
Communication regarding bookings is excellent and last minute changes have been accommodated with no problem making difficult situations so much easier for us.

All in all a truly brilliant service and one which we will continue to use for as long as possible.

Overall Experience

My mum is very happy with the service you provide. All your staff are always on time unless they get held up in traffic and if this is the case they have always rung to let mum know. They are always happy, cheerful and chatty, and brighten her day with their stories of family or holidays. For myself as long as my mum is happy and looked after it makes it much easier for me to relax on my time away. Thank you.

Helping Hands Home Care have transformed my life and I am no longer lonely, or frightened about not being able to do every day things. I am 85 in March, at first I did not like so many different people coming each day, but now I look forward to seeing them and hearing their stories. I can relax and look forward to each day now and catching up with news. Well done HH. A visit to the doctor was very helpful also.

Review from Jane M (Daughter-in-law of Client) published on 13 February 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We employed Helping Hands as carers for my mother and step father in law who both have dementia and were living at home. The care provided was second to none, the carer's all used their initiative and washed bedding and clothing, made sure that the kitchen was left clean etc. as well as catering for the needs of my parents in law. Their cheerful disposition also helped to maintain a nice homely environment. The management team bent over backwards to help with any emergency i.e. the last minute need for an overnight stay etc. Thank you team, you were amazing!

Overall Experience

I have been delighted and impressed by the quality of the service I have received. Despite having to change dates 5 times due to hospital cancellations (often at the very last minute) the staff were unfailingly helpful and courteous. The carers have come when they should-not always the case with many services and have been kind and efficient in every way and have been a great help to me! Thank you.

Hi Beryl, thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review! I'm so pleased to hear how our carers have been a great help to you and that you're so impressed with the quality of our service. Your kind feedback means the world to us!
