About companionship and sitting
What it usually involves
Regular visits for company: a chat over a cuppa, a game of cards, a walk, reading the paper together, or simply being there so someone isn't on their own all day. Sitting can also mean staying with someone while a family carer goes out.
How a self-employed carer can help
The same person each visit, so a real friendship can grow. Many will happily make a drink or a sandwich while they're there. If they notice something worrying, they'll let you know.
Questions worth asking
- What do you enjoy doing with the people you visit?
- Are you happy to go out, for example to a café or a club?
- What's the shortest visit you'll do?

Helpful guides
Questions families ask
Is companionship really worth paying for?
Loneliness can wear people down as much as any physical problem. Many families find a regular visitor lifts their loved one's mood, gives the day a shape, and gives everyone peace of mind.
Can a companion take Dad out?
Many will, on foot, by bus or in their own car. If they drive, ask whether their car insurance covers business use.
Is it free for families?
Yes, completely. We never take a cut of what you pay a carer or cleaner.

Why I started Carers & Cleaners
When my mum, Jean, was diagnosed with dementia, I found it surprisingly hard to find good local help. In the end we found a wonderful independent carer, and later a cleaner, by word of mouth. I built Carers & Cleaners so other families don't have to rely on luck.
