The Independent Living Support Service is designed to help older people remain independent in their own homes by assisting with day-to-day living tasks.

What do we cover?

Maybe you need someone to help you buy your granddaughter's birthday present, or you'd like a companion for a picnic in the park. With the Independent Living Support service, the decisions are all yours. We can help with things like:

• Light Domestic Cleaning
• Laundry
• Ironing
• Changing bedding
• Shopping
• Dealing with correspondence
• Prescription collection
• Befriending

We will offer as much or as little help as is required at a time that suits you within the hours the service is available.

We tailor the service to your preferences and needs. We visit you at home in the first instance, to discuss the requirements and agree with you the tasks you would like carried out. Our coordinator will then match you to a suitable support worker who will always carry identification, visit at pre-arranged times and carry out the tasks we have agreed with you.

Are your staff DBS checked?

All our staff are rigorously vetted including checks via the Disclosure and Barring Service and the Protection of Vulnerable Adults Register. They all receive comprehensive training and are regularly reviewed and monitored to ensure a consistently high quality of service.

How do I access this service?

Whether you are calling for yourself or on behalf of someone you know, you will need to complete a referral form and register with the service. Please ensure you have the persons permission before making a referral for somebody else.

To register you can either call us on 01622 753618 to register over the phone or email office@ageukmst.org.uk
