Questions families ask

How much does home help for an elderly parent cost?

Each helper sets their own hourly rate, from £20 an hour. We add a 10% service fee on your side, and nothing is taken from the helper. For example, a two-hour visit at £20 an hour costs £44 in total: £40 to your helper and £4 to us. There is no contract and no notice period.

How are helpers checked?

Every helper is DBS-checked, has their identity checked, has two references taken up and is interviewed by our team before they are introduced to anyone. Every visit is insured. You meet your helper before anything starts.

Do your helpers provide personal care?

No. Witho is support only: no washing, dressing, toileting or medication. That keeps it safe, simple and affordable. If personal care is needed, we will say so honestly and point you to a registered provider.

What happens after I ask for a call back?

A real person rings you within one working day to talk through what would help, then suggests a vetted helper near your parent. You meet them first, and visits are arranged around you — one-off, weekly or more often.
