We are a small team providing friendly and flexible companion care to the local community and this gift of home grown apples made my day

A client recently gave me some apples from his garden. Small acts of kindness like this make all the difference to my day.

Out of an hour's visit I know that I only have 40 minutes to get things done before he announces that he has made the tea. In those 40 minutes I changed the sheets on the bed and did some cleaning and cobwebbing. It is a race against the clock before tea time is announced and we discuss the headlines in the news that day.

We have the system down to a fine art. He knows that he can call me to come in more often when he is not well, and less often when he is back to normal. When he was ill, I came in to make lunch every day and take him to several doctor's appointments. When we were at the hospital, he introduced me as his "friend", which warmed my heart.

Now he is well, I pop in twice a month to keep on top of the cleaning etc. I also help him with any emails or technical issues that he is concerned about.
