About Us
About Hands on Hand Home Care
Care with a personal touch
Hands on Hand Home Care was founded from a simple belief: everyone deserves to feel safe, respected and truly listened to in their own home.
Our founder, Charlie, began working in domiciliary care in March 2020. In a short time he progressed from part-time carer to senior supervisor and qualified trainer, teaching First Aid, Moving & Handling and Medication Awareness, as well as taking on data protection responsibilities.
What never changed was the part he loved most – visiting customers in their own homes, listening to their stories and making a real difference to their day.
In May 2022, Hands on Hand Home Care was born to focus fully on that passion: giving back to the community and supporting people who just need that little bit of extra help to live well at home. Since then, Charlie’s partner and daughter have joined the team, helping us offer a complete, family-run service with one clear priority – our customers are at the heart of everything we do
