If you're worried about a parent or older relative in Gorleston spending too much of the week alone, we can help. We introduce one familiar, DBS-checked companion — someone who comes for the person, not a checklist — for conversation, a walk on the prom, help with appointments, and the kind of company you genuinely look forward to.
Gorleston is a lovely place to grow older — and an even lovelier one with good company. Visits are shaped entirely around the person: a slow walk along the cliff tops or the promenade, an ice cream by the bandstand, a sit in Pier Gardens watching the boats, a coffee on the High Street, or simply a proper chat over tea at home.
Regular visits from the same friendly face — conversation, shared hobbies, a stroll to the beach, or a browse in town. Company that becomes a real friendship.
The James Paget is right on the doorstep, and we're often there — accompanying someone to an appointment, keeping them company while they wait, and helping remember what was said.
A hand with the small things that keep life running — light tidying, laundry, meal preparation, errands and prescriptions — always around the visit, never instead of it.
£18 per hour — no contracts, no minimum commitment. The first conversation and introductory visit are completely free, with no obligation.
Arrange a free visitWe're genuinely local — not a national agency with a branch office. As well as Gorleston-on-Sea itself, we regularly visit the surrounding villages, including Bradwell, Belton, Burgh Castle and Hopton-on-Sea. If you're nearby and not sure whether we can reach you, just ask.
Also looking nearby? We cover Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft too.

The first step is just a friendly conversation — no pressure, no commitment. Harriet will listen, understand your situation, and explain honestly whether we're the right fit.
If it feels right, we'll arrange a free first visit in Gorleston so you (or your parent) can meet a companion in person before deciding anything.
Prefer to talk it through? Call or WhatsApp Harriet on 07876 753211.
Usually within a week or so of the free introductory visit — sometimes sooner. We'll always be honest about availability when you get in touch.
Of course — most enquiries come from sons and daughters, often living elsewhere. We're happy to keep you in the loop after visits so you always know how things are going.
No — we provide companionship and practical support, not personal or medical care. If hands-on care is needed, we'll say so honestly and point you in the right direction.
We will get back to you within one working day.
Harriet will call or email you within one working day to arrange a convenient time for your free conversation.
In the meantime, feel free to call on 07876 753211.
