Why Families Choose Live-In Care
Moving into residential care is a major emotional and practical decision. Live-in care allows your loved one to remain in the comfort of their own home while receiving dedicated one-to-one support.
Stay in Familiar Surroundings
Your loved one can remain in the home they know, close to treasured routines, neighbours, family and community life.
Personal One-to-One Support
Unlike residential care, live-in care offers dedicated support tailored to the individual, not shared care across multiple residents.
Real Peace of Mind
Families gain reassurance knowing support is present day and night, with oversight from a trusted local care provider.
Our Best Ever Live-In Care Offer
To introduce more families to the benefits of live-in care, Good Companions is waiving its agency fee for the first 6 months. This creates a meaningful saving while keeping professional coordination and support in place.
The Financial Benefit
- Normal agency fee: £1,000 per month
- Agency fee removed for: 6 months
- Total customer saving: £6,000
- You simply pay the carer directly

Why Families Trust Good Companions
Choosing care is one of the most important decisions a family can make. Good Companions has been established for over 25 years and has provided outstanding care services throughout that time, giving families reassurance when choosing support at home.
Established for Over 25 Years
Families want experience, consistency and reliability. Good Companions has been supporting people for over 25 years.
Local Cumbria Support
We understand the needs of local families and provide a personal, compassionate and responsive service across Cumbria.
Built-In Daily Support for Better Care
To ensure the highest standards of care, the live-in carer needs a daily break. All we ask is that Good Companions provides 1 hour per day of home care support alongside the live-in arrangement.
Why This Matters
- Allows the live-in carer a short daily break
- Ensures continuity of care throughout the day
- Adds reassurance for the customer and family
- Provides extra oversight from the Good Companions team
An Extra Layer of Reassurance
This is not a weakness in the offer. It is an added layer of support that improves service quality, continuity and peace of mind for families.
Families receive live-in care plus a daily home care visit from the Good Companions team.
When Live-In Care May Be the Right Choice
Many families begin exploring live-in care after a fall, hospital stay, or increasing concerns about safety at home. Live-in care can provide the reassurance and support needed while allowing someone to remain safely in the comfort of their own home.
Living Alone Is Becoming Difficult
If a loved one is finding it harder to manage meals, medication, mobility or daily routines, live-in care can provide reassuring support at home.
Family Members Are Worried
Many families begin exploring care because they are concerned about safety, loneliness or wellbeing. Having a carer present can provide peace of mind.
Frequent Falls or Mobility Issues
When mobility becomes more challenging, having someone available to help with movement, daily tasks and reassurance can greatly improve confidence and safety.
Memory Difficulties or Dementia
Familiar surroundings can be especially important for people experiencing memory loss. Live-in care allows routines to continue in a reassuring environment.
Considering a Care Home
Many families explore live-in care as an alternative to residential care, allowing their loved one to remain at home while receiving personalised support.
Needing More Reassurance Day and Night
Live-in care can provide companionship and support throughout the day, helping someone feel safer, more confident and less isolated.
Limited to the First 20 Families in Cumbria
Because this is our best ever live-in care offer, availability is limited. Once the first 20 families secure their place, the offer will close.
