Review from Amanda A (Daughter of Client) published on 26 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The care my mum is receiving while living with Parkinson's is excellent. The carers all show kindness and patience while looking after mum. They take time to understand her individual routines and needs and always treat her with dignity.
Communication with day to day care via the app is really useful and informative. The managers are always available, understanding and proactive in their approach to mum's care.

As a family we are incredibly grateful for the support given to mum and would highly recommend this team to anyone needing high-quality, compassionate care.

Excellent company with highly competent and caring staff. Their medical knowledge is helpful and they'll drop everything and come for emergencies. Their charges are on the high side but you do get what you pay for.

Review from J M (Daughter of Client) published on 25 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The visiting angels (or as we called them mums angels ) have been amazing in the 4 months that we have used before mum went into a care home.
The advice and guidance that has been given has been invaluable. From the knowledge of dementia and medical issues. Has many times helped to get extra support from the GP and other departments.
The help ensuring practical things have been put into place in the home, which helped mum so much.
The ladies are always cheerful and engaging in conversation with mum. Helping to get her up in the morning , getting into the shower and dressed. A bug thank you to Shelly, Pooja, Bridgett and Charn.
The app that visiting angels use is incredible as I could see after each visit what had taken place.

My only one regret is that I didn't find visiting angels sooner. To help support mum and myself in so many ways.

Review from Linda R (Daughter of Client) published on 16 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Mum really values the support received, even though she doesn't allow the carers to do as much as they would like.
She loves the routine, speaks highly of them all and enjoys their company as she is housebound. Mum has definitely become more comfortable and able to engage in conversation with the carers.
The daily reports are a really useful insight for us to see what's going on.

Shelley and Pooja share concerns quickly and professionally, whilst being proactive , and informative .

Overall Experience
This company live up to their name.
The professional care is provided with compassion and good humour;the hour-long visits quickly established a familiarity with the client and her husband which was a pleasure and relief to witness.
On several occasions the Angels worked above and beyond,and no situation appeared too much trouble.
The after-care compassion, attendance at the funeral service and regular welfare visits and phone calls to my friend have been such a welcome boost for him.
I am very grateful and inspired by their work.

Thankyou Angels.

Review from Jane S (Daughter of Client) published on 5 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We began using Visiting Angels in October 2025 to help care for my parents, and the experience has been positive from the start.
Initially, we arranged part-time support, but as my mother's dementia progressed, we transitioned to live-in carers. Throughout every stage the team has been compassionate, knowledgeable and supportive.
We are currently in the process of finding live-in carers who understand my mother's needs, and Visiting Angels have been very helpful and patient in supporting us through this transition.

Knowing my parents are in safe, capable hands has given our family real peace of mind. I would not hesitate to recommend Visiting Angels to anyone looking for reliable, home care services who genuinely care about the wellbeing of the families they support.

Review from Gillian C (Client / Service User) published on 18 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Following a fall at home I needed some help during my recovery period and found Visiting Angels. I was initially concerned about needing to ask for help as I am a very independent person but after meeting them I was very impressed with their kindness and care. They helped me to regain my confidence in looking after myself again and were so kind and it was a real pleasure to see them on the days they came to visit. With their support it relieved my family of the pressure of re arranging the whole of their lives to take care of me and enabled them to feel happy that I was being supported. I would have no hesitation in using them again should the need arise.

I have no hesitation in recommending their services and cannot praise them highly enough.

Review from Ron C (Husband of Client) published on 15 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I have been a client of Visiting Angels since last May to help care for my wife who has Alzheimer's, the continuity of staff, caring nature plus attention to detail have proved second to none. The home manager and director are always making sure all staff go the extra mile to satisfy the person's needs, important things like picking up prescriptions plus making vital phone calls on behalf of the client.

The special emergency line service actually works as I have found out firsthand, I have nothing but thanks and lots of praise for this company.

Review from Emma T (Daughter of Client) published on 2 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Following a fall at home, I contracted Visiting Angels on behalf of my mother initially for short-term help allowing me to retrun to work immediately. I was immediately impressed by the care, attention to detail and professionalism of the team, as well as the immediate rapport they all built with my mother. This was our and her first experience of having carers into the house and their efforts above made this seamless and stress-free for both of us. Although initially this was a short-term placement, soon after my mother had to enter hospital for 6-7 weeks but their care and interest did not reduce during this time, with regular visits to my mother in hopspital for assessment but also for social/personal reasons. I feel this was above and beyond what I had expected, and made me realise how lucky we were to have their support. Following her sudden discharge they re-accommodated to her needs immediately. I wholeheartedly recommend Visiting Angels and their carers.

Review from T S (Daughter of Client) published on 29 May 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Mum and dad have always been very wary about having carers in the home and losing their independence.
Finding visiting angels has been such positive experience for my parents and myself.
The care being provided enables my parents to feel that they are in control and they feel that they have found new friends rather than carers.
All staff are professional, positive and friendly. They are flexible and able to assist mum and dad on the tasks required on any visit.
I love the app they use, which enables me to keep in touch with what has happened at each visit.

Visiting Angels have given me reassurance and lifted some of the concerns I have regarding my mum and dad living independently.

Review from Sarah O (Daughter of Client) published on 15 April 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The carer is always on time and if for any reason is going to be late, she will contact mum. She is very professional, caring and industrious while she is with mum.
It was a huge step allowing a stranger into her home but the gentle nature of her has put mum's mind at rest. She encourages mum to do what she can but steps in when needed. In the hour she is there she prepares breakfast, lunch and tea - the latter for mum to pop in microwave or oven later. She makes the bed, washes up and ensures the house looks clean and tidy which is what mum likes! She also helps with her exercises.

The accessibility of the company is excellent and they are always conferring with mum and making sure she is happy.

Mum has been a client now for over a year. I feel very comfortable with the care my mum is receiving, it gives me peace of mind to know she is in safe hands.

We have been very happy with the care my mother has received since returning from the hospital after a fall. She is 88 and needed her confidence regaining after a shoulder break.

Their name is true to the care they give!
They are amazing angels.
The support and care provided to our family member has made such a significant difference to them. They are able to stay in their own home with familiar surroundings which is so important to a person with dementia.
The management of their service is first class too. Personal-centred care.

I would recommend them without hesitation.
