Support Services
Appointment Accompaniment
A calm companion to get you there, sit with you and get you home again.
We accompany clients to GP surgeries, outpatient appointments, opticians, dentists, hairdressers, banks and solicitors — helping with the journey, the waiting and the getting home.
We can take notes if you would like us to, and pass on anything you want a relative to know. Decisions, treatment and health advice remain entirely with the professionals you are seeing.
Who this suits
- Clients who find appointments daunting or tiring to attend alone
- Families who cannot take time away from work for every appointment
What this does not include
- No personal care such as washing, bathing, dressing or toileting
- No administering or managing of medicines
- No nursing, clinical tasks, treatment or health monitoring
- No support that requires registration with the Care Quality Commission

We will listen first, then build an arrangement around the person — not the other way round.
