Using companiions was an incredible experience start to finish. The carer assigned to my grandmother's care was lovely & she can't stop raving about him. I plan to book weekly so she has consistent safe, & convenient company.

I’m a new user to the app but this has really helped provide extra support to my father who lives 3 hours away. We have had 3 great visits so far and he’s really enjoying the additional company and support he has received.

I've been using companiions for over a month now and it is such a great app! Got to meet some lovely people, give a helping hand and earn some extra money. Great concept, especially after the year we've all had as a society!

Helen was like a breath of fresh air. She was warm, engaging and friendly. She fitted in straight away and made a lovely companiion for Melvin.

I really enjoyed my first visit, we spent the whole time talking! I was really pleased that my voice work experienced helped this loved one who has some speech issues and look forward to visiting her regularly.
