Homecare in Kidderminster & Stourbridge

Right at Home Kidderminster & Stourbridge provides friendly, person-centred care in Kidderminster and Stourbridge, as well as the surrounding communities of Belbroughton, Blakedown, Blakeshall, Broome, Chaddesley Corbett, Churchill, Cookley, Hagley, Kinver, Stourport-on-Severn and Wolverley.
 

If you live just outside these areas, it's still worth getting in touch as we may be able to provide support.

Companionship care is friendly, practical support that helps you feel confident and connected at home. That might be someone to chat with over lunch or a hand with the weekly shop. It could just as easily be company on a walk or a lift to a club you've always enjoyed.

The focus is on how someone's day feels rather than a list of jobs to get through. For families, knowing a kind and reliable face is calling in regularly can bring real peace of mind.

There's plenty happening locally alongside the support we provide.

In Kidderminster, Age UK runs a monthly dementia café and Alzheimer's Society holds a weekly Singing for the Brain group. Al's Café also meets one evening a month for people living with dementia. Each offers a relaxed, welcoming space to meet others.

In Stourbridge, Age Concern Stourbridge & Halesowen runs a busy programme that includes social events and special interest clubs, along with community talks and dementia awareness sessions.

We're always happy to help someone find their way to groups like these, and to go along too if some company would make that first visit feel easier.

The cost depends on how much support you'd like and how often you'd like it. Because every plan is shaped around the individual, the best place to start is a conversation, where we can talk through your options and what they're likely to cost. We'll make sure your support offers good value, and we'll review it with you as things change.

You may also be able to get help towards the cost of care from your local council. For Kidderminster and most of the surrounding villages, that's Worcestershire County Council. Stourbridge falls under Dudley Council, and Kinver under Staffordshire County Council. If you're not sure where to start, get in touch, and we'll gladly point you in the right direction.

Often, the best place to start is with the things people don't want to give up. For some, that's local history. The Museum of Carpet celebrates Kidderminster's carpet-making heritage, while Stourbridge Glass Museum tells the story of around 400 years of glassmaking, with live demonstrations alongside its interactive displays.

For others, it's the smaller pleasures they'd like to keep up, like a regular coffee spot or a browse around the shops without feeling rushed.

Whatever that looks like for you, we'll take the time to understand it. Knowing how your week usually runs is what turns a scheduled visit into company you genuinely look forward to.

Absolutely. Many people get in touch with us directly, and we'll work with you to build support that fits around your own routines.

We know asking for help can feel like a big step, especially if you've always managed on your own. We're not here to take over. We're here to make it easier to keep doing the things you want to do. Support can start with a couple of hours a week, and you can add more later if you'd like.
