Having no background in care and being 55 years old a career change was daunting. I needn't have worried as all the staff are so lovely, supportive, kind and helpful from my co- workers to my Managers. I have to say how much I love my job and I am so grateful for the chance I was given to
work for them. They are a wonderful company to work for and their standard of care is so wonderful to be part of

I have worked for Alltogether Care for almost 2 years having previously been from a retail background. I wish I had made the change years ago. I love my job. It is hard work but the most rewarding job I have ever done.
Gail
Companionship Care Worker
My daughter needed support three days a week, and the girl we got has been absolutely brilliant. Brilliant social skills, gets on with everyone.
She has really got to know my daughter and has helped her be independant.
All the girls have been amazing going outings and getting her nails done.
It has been a very positive experience for my daughter and my family.
