Local carers, not agency rotas
We introduce families to trusted, self-employed carers who live and work locally. That means familiar faces, consistent support, and care shaped around real routines — not a rotating agency rota.
One-to-one matching that actually works
We don’t just match skills, we match personalities. Families in Hampshire meet and choose their carer, helping build trust, confidence and long-term continuity, especially where dementia or anxiety is involved.
Transparent costs, no hidden agency margins
Because Gladys is an introductory agency, families benefit from clearer pricing and better value. You’ll understand costs upfront, whether you’re arranging hourly care, respite, or live-in support.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of elderly care services are available in the New Forest?
We provide visiting care, live-in care, respite care and dementia support in Hampshire, tailored to individual needs and routines.
How much does home care in the New Forest cost?
The cost of home care in Hampshire depends on the number of hours and level of support required. Many families find care at home offers more flexibility and better value than residential care.
Is it too soon to arrange help for Mum or Dad?
This is one of the most common questions we hear. In reality, starting with light support early often prevents crisis later and allows care to grow gradually, at a pace that feels right. If you're thinking about Starting Care for the First Time, we can help.
How quickly can care start?
Start times depend on availability, but we aim to match families with suitable local carers as quickly and efficiently as possible.
