I offer a range of services tailored to suit you such as;Outings for either individuals or small groups of friends (up to four) to the garden centre, theatre or somewhere of your choice.

Whilst we strive to provide an outstanding service to our clients, their emotional wellbeing is of paramount importance to us. Our PA’s aren’t there solely to cater for their domestic requirements, we are there to build trusting relationships, friendships and to create a bond with them. Our interest is in the person, their story, their history, it’s all about them.
Unique Companions are great listeners, we hear what’s being said, we remember the things that matter to others. Whilst not trained councillors, we offer support and direction if needed. Our focus is to bring positivity and energy to those using our service and to enjoy our time together.
We aren’t here to share our woes with our clients, we are here to hopefully bring joy and friendship to their lives. Everybody needs somebody and who better to spend time with someone who helps to brighten their day.

Many years ago, following on from a personal family experience with Alzheimer’s disease I began volunteering at The Lovejoy day Care Centre where I am lucky to have had and continue to have invaluable practical training working with the elderly and those suffering from the many different forms of Dementia. Mind stimulation, hand eye co-ordinated games, reminiscence sessions, days out and music therapy are just some of the work we do offering more than simply care in a safe environment. I believe engagement, compassion, laughter and reassurance are some of the most important things when working with any one vulnerable.
My volunteer work has given me great insights and experience in so many ways and in addition my previous 16 years working as Cabin Crew for British Airways has given me a wealth of practical and interpersonal skills all transferable to my role as a Personal Assistant.
I am here to support you and your family so if you need me please get in touch and we can discuss and prepare a complete package that is exactly right for you.
