Honeysuckle Home Help is a bespoke person-centred care service offering you the support that you want or need in the comfort of your own home. Our aim is to improve your quality of life while preserving your independence.

Honeysuckle Home Help works hard to build a strong professional partnership with our clients. We recognise that one size doesn’t fit all and we want to help you identify and address your needs in a way that you are comfortable with and in control of.

Honeysuckle Home Help understands that sometimes a little help can go a long way towards making life easier and days happier. We can offer everything from a one-off chat over a cup of tea and a slice of cake, to regular help with household chores – from a seaside outing to daily personal care.

We offer emotional and physical support to you and your loved ones to give you peace of mind, security and comfort. Honeysuckle Home Help is flexible and able to change and adapt our care in line with your needs. We can also offer short term live in and respite care.

Honeysuckle Home Help will always ensure that our services are carried out with dignity, respect and with your independence at the heart of what we do. We will respect your wishes and your privacy at all time. We believe that open and honest communication are the key to a successful working relationship.

Honeysuckle Home Care is owned and run by Lucy Short. Lucy has many years of experience working and volunteering in the community with adults and young people. After going through health issues including breast cancer, Lucy’s motivation is to be able to help others to maintain their mental and physical wellbeing and their independence. Lucy fully understands how hard it can be to ask for help and for loved ones to know how to get the balance of care right.

Lucy has completed Level 2 Care Certificate and Food Hygiene courses.

Lucy is also a fully qualified and insured Foot Health Practitioner and Beauty Therapist with over 20 years of experience.  She is able to professionally treat a full range of foot related issues including corns, callouses, verrucae, ingrown nails, nail care, hard skin and also offers a range of holistic therapy treatments including manicure, pedicure, skin care and massage.
