Join Age UK Nottingham & Nottinghamshire’s Living Well at Home service, and you’ll work with people one-to-one, getting to know their interests, routines and what matters to them.

Your visits could include:
- Helping with cleaning, ironing, laundry and changing bedding
- Shopping with or for someone and helping prepare simple meals

- Accompanying someone to appointments or community activities
