  • Home Instead (Ascot, Camberley and Wokingham), Bracknell
Home Instead offers outstanding quality of the care by taking time to understand what each person needs and what makes them happy.

Providing clients with the right home care so they can maintain their independence and dignity and continue to enjoy life, Home Instead understands the importance of spending time with people; sometimes just being there is as important as getting the jobs done.

Home Instead Bagshot visits people throughout the Ascot, Camberley & Wokingham area, including Bracknell, Chobham, Lightwater and all the areas in between. They help with most of the things people need to stay in their own homes, including meal preparation, shopping, light housekeeping, medication and personal care.

Home Instead's minimum visit is an hour so you don't have to rush and you'll see the same person most of the time so you can plan your week together.

The Ascot office is part of a wider group that cover the Surrey, Hampshire and Berkshire borders and have additional facilities such as a wheelchair accessible vehicle and raiser chair incase of a fall.

Home Instead CAREGivers are carefully selected, properly trained and their 4 references have been checked. They are genuinely caring and share the company ethos of treating their clients as they would want their own parents to be treated.

Our care provider gives excellent support and care. She is 100% reliable and consistently delivers exactly what is required and more. She is so kind, thoughtful, considerate and always cheerful. She is pro-active and recognises any changes that may need further action. She carries out all personal care
tasks with respectful dignity and sensitivity. She is a breath of fresh air, and the family really values her help and support, always delivered with professionalism and a smile.

The care provided for my mother, who suffers from dementia, was excellent and enabled her to stay at home for as long as possible. Communication with the management team and help given was also extremely good. I would have no hesitation in recommending Home Instead to others.

Having used two other home care companies prior to Home Instead, I wish that I had used them from the start. They took excellent care of my 94-year-old mother, who suffers from dementia and poor mobility until the time came that she needed 24-hour care. The caregivers were very kind to her and quickly
built up a good relationship with her. They acted very professionally at all times. The management were always very quick to respond to queries and were able to increase my mother’s visits immediately when her needs became greater.

After a serious fall last summer, my elderly Mother needed a care package put in place, to allow her to stay in her own home. At a difficult and emotional time, I cannot thank Home Instead enough, for their help in making this happen so quickly and with ease. The regular staff that cared for her 3 times
a day, built a bond with my Mum, that helped to make her feel safe and secure. Many thanks to you all at Home Instead.

I found Home Instead as part of an internet search. I had never heard of the organisation. I needed a part-time carer for my mother who lived over 100 miles away from me. From the start, they had a very caring approach but they also behaved very professionally. It was clear that their management
structure worked, and they never made any claims that they were unable to achieve. The carer allocated to my mother was clearly someone to whom she was able to relate, and also someone who could help her lead a more satisfactory existence.

Home Instead Senior Care in Bagshot provided very professional and sensitive care to my 90+ parents for two years. Their caregivers helped keep mum and dad in good spirits, as well as dealing with all the domestic jobs they could no longer manage due to failing health. I would highly recommend Home
Instead to anyone in a similar position.

I cannot thank Home Instead enough for my mother's carer. While pretty fit physically and living alone, my mother has a mild cognitive disorder and no longer drives. Before employing her carer, my mother was adamant that she did not need anyone to regularly visit her. I insisted on one visit per week.
It took only a week or two for my mother to connect with the carer.That visit has become the highlight of her week. The carer is so kind, so perceptive and so respectful. My mother has a great sense of humour and the carer makes every visit enjoyable for her, according to her abilities. She takes my mother on trips to pick up food, go to the post office or bank, pick up prescriptions, get a haircut, and (my mother's favourite) visit plant nurseries. I live at a distance from my mother, visiting every month, so getting regular feedback from the company, via the carer, has been so important to me since the carer picks up quite subtle changes in behaviour or physical issues.

Thank you very much for your comments Wendy. The carer really enjoys visiting your mum!

Excellent administration with comprehensive care plan.
The support given by all the carers was excellent. My husband was treated with respect and given encouragement when he lacked confidence. Their timekeeping was very reliable and they were more than willing to accommodate changes when requested.
On the occasion, we had to use the emergency service. Home Instead were, once again, extremely helpful and efficient.
All in all an excellent service that we would not hesitate to recommend.

A year last February I had a knee replacement and as I have no family I needed some home care. I had heard of Home Instead Senior Care (Ascot, Camberley and Wokingham) and they came in twice a day for an hour. The hour passed too quickly but all of them (I had 6 different carers) did anything they could
to help and seemed always cheerful, given that most days they were the only time I saw anyone that was important. For the last year, I have continued to have just one carer once a week and continue to look forward to their visits. No complaints.

My elderly parents were full of trepidation at the thought of having carers visit, but they needn’t have worried. They’ve been so impressed with the kindness, reliability, cheerfulness and common sense the carers bring with them on each and every visit. Their care is exemplary. They treat my father
with dignity and respect even though his dementia causes challenging behaviour and they have been a great support to my mother who visibly relaxes when they are in the house. The agency is fleet-footed and flexible if care sessions need to change and respond very promptly to emails and calls. I heard about Home Instead through personal recommendation and am so thankful for everything they do.

Always very satisfied, but if I need you again and your help with laundry, I would appreciate if the Carer knows how to use an iron and make a bed with two sheets!

Reply from Margaret Martin at Home Instead (Ascot, Camberley and Wokingham)

Thanks for your review Margaret. We've changed our training since you let us know about the ironing, so I'm sure that problem won't arise again. I hope you're managing well without us.

My daughters insisted that I should have help at home mornings and evenings after being discharged from hospital. Fortunately, they found your company, I was very happy with the two lovely ladies who helped me for the first few days at home.
I no longer need their help, but if I were ever to meed home
help again I would request the same ladies.

Home Instead Senior Care (Ascot, Camberley and Wokingham) has now helped my mum for nearly a year. She is active and independent but did suffer a stroke which has restricted a lot of what she can do. I can only heap praise on the Home Instead team. Everyone is wonderful and I really could not recommend
the service and the team more highly.

Job Title: Deputy Care Manager

Joined: 2018

I joined the office team at Bagshot in September 2018, having previously worked as a CAREGiver for the Woking branch until I moved closer to Bagshot.


I’ve loved working for Home Instead as a CAREGiver, helping to support individuals so they can carry on living at home independently.


My role now is to meet new clients and help them design the kind of support they would like to receive, visit our existing clients to make sure they're happy with the support they're receiving and deal with questions from our team of CAREGivers.


I am very much looking forward to my new role and getting to know all of the clients and CAREGivers.
