Handyperson Service – Supporting you to stay safe and independent at home
Our Handyperson Service supports older people and adults with disabilities to remain independent, safe, and comfortable in their own homes.
When you get in touch, we’ll talk through what matters most to you and arrange a visit to carry out any agreed work, which may include installing small adaptations, completing minor repairs, and offering practical advice to help you manage safely at home.
Our team are DLF Trusted Assessor trained and experienced in identifying solutions that can make everyday life easier.
How can we help
We also work closely with health, social care and voluntary partners across Cambridgeshire to support people returning home from hospital where appropriate.
Rather than providing a fixed list of tasks, we encourage you to contact us to discuss your needs, and we will do our best to help or point you in the right direction.
See our article to see what is is like for 'A Day in the Life of a Handyperson'
