The Good Company People
The Good Company People will identify, recruit and train friendly 'hosts’ to provide stimulating and affordable sessions in their own homes for up to three guests. Our bespoke introduction service will match hosts and guests by interests, values and hobbies. The Good Company People brings benefits for all concerned. Our hosts income will be almost twice the national average pay for carers, yet guests will pay less than half the typical cost of care. Relatives, meanwhile, will be provided with guilt-free respite from the sometimes challenging and exhausting responsibility of looking after loved ones.
