Keeping the home clean, tidy and supporting ongoing decluttering
Shopping (local and supermarket), online orders and collecting prescriptions

Encouragement to attend social activities, appointments and support groups
Support to get outdoors for short walks or time in the garden (including use of mobility aids if needed)
