FAQs

I provide home help services designed to make everyday life easier and more comfortable. This includes:

Companionship

Light housework (cleaning, tidying, laundry, ironing)

Meal preparation

Shopping and errands

Appointment support (accompanying you, not medical care)

Household organisation and routine planning

My focus is on non-clinical, day-to-day support that helps people stay independent at home.

No – Cherry Blossom is not CQC registered, so I cannot provide personal care (such as washing, dressing, or administering medication) under this business.

However, in some cases, personal care may be arranged through a separate role as a Personal Assistant. This is not part of Cherry Blossom services. If this is something you’re interested in, I can discuss it with you on a case-by-case basis.

I support older people, those living with disabilities, and anyone who needs a little extra help around the home. Whether it’s companionship, help with housework, or assistance with shopping, I adapt my services to each client’s needs.

Yes. Companionship is at the heart of what I do. This can include:

Friendly conversation and social time

Going for a walk

Playing games or reading together

Accompanying you to appointments or social activities

I believe emotional wellbeing is just as important as practical support.

Absolutely. I can accompany you to appointments, help with shopping, or enjoy social trips together. Having a supportive presence can make these experiences much easier and more enjoyable.

Yes – I can prepare simple, nutritious meals and snacks, taking into account your preferences and dietary needs. This may include cooking from scratch, light meal prep, or heating and serving food safely.

Yes – I am fully insured and hold an enhanced DBS check for your peace of mind. With over 25 years of experience in care and support, I bring professionalism, empathy, and reliability to every client.

Very flexible – I can provide support for just a couple of hours a week, or more regular visits, depending on your needs. My services can also be adjusted as your situation changes.

I charge an hourly rate of £18 – £22. The price varies depending on the type of support you require. In addition, travel to appointments, outings will be charged at 45p a mile outside your local area.

Don’t just take my word for it – hear from the families and individuals I have supported across Todmorden and the surrounding areas. Their kind words reflect the trust, comfort, and peace of mind I aim to bring to every home.

I’m so excited to share that my friend and former colleague, Mel, is starting her own home help business — and I couldn’t recommend her more highly!
I had the pleasure of working alongside Mel for a year, and in that time, I saw just how truly special she is. Mel is, without a doubt, the most caring person I have ever met. She has a heart of gold and a natural gift for helping others, always approaching her work with patience, kindness, and genuine warmth.
Not only is she incredibly professional and reliable, but she’s also just such a lovely person to be around. Her positive energy lifts everyone around her, and she has a unique ability to make people feel safe, supported, and valued.
If you or someone you love is in need of home help from someone who is both capable and compassionate, I couldn’t think of anyone better than Mel. Her clients will be in the best hands, and I know she’ll make a real difference in their lives.
Wishing you all the success in the world, Mel — you truly deserve it! ❤️

I am so pleased to give my whole hearted support to Mel and her new business, Cherry Blossom 🌸 … Mel looked after my husband over a number of years right up until his last hospital admission.

With great sadness, my husband passed away 4 weeks ago … but ‘grandad’ as he was kindly referred to, always valued the support, kindness, caring and compassion Mel gave to both of us through some extremely difficult times … mixed with a lovely wicked sense of humour.

Mel was always a joy to be around … Grandad always said that, if he could, he would have adopted Mel, she felt like a daughter … to both of us .. and nothing was ever too much trouble … Good luck Mel, you deserve every success moving forward.

With love Lorraine ❤️xx
