A new care home branch has opened to help more people remain independent in their own homes.

Helping Hands Home Care, one of the nation's leading home care organisations, has launched its latest branch in Salisbury, offering person-centred support tailored to individual needs.

The service includes 30-minute home visits, temporary respite care, and 24/7 live-in care, with support ranging from assistance with daily routines and medication to clinical care, dementia support and help attending community events and activities.

Darcie Watson, branch care manager for Helping Hands Salisbury, said: "We're delighted to bring Helping Hands to the historic, picturesque city of Salisbury.

"Our goal is to deliver compassionate care that supports people to live well, surrounded by the people and places they love.

"We look forward to working closely with local families, healthcare providers, and community groups to make a lasting difference in people's lives."

The opening has also created new job opportunities in the area, including roles for care assistants, coordinators and support staff.

All employees have access to training and development through the Helping Hands Training Academy, which offers a range of enhanced, bespoke courses to support career progression.

Helping Hands currently employs more than 6,000 carers across England and Wales, supporting over 11,000 customers to remain in their own homes.

The Salisbury branch, which opened on September 10, is now accepting new customers.
