Companion Carer Jobs in Clun

PrimeCarers connects self-employed companion carers with families in Clun and the surrounding parts of Shropshire. This page is for experienced carers who enjoy conversation, outings, hobbies and light help around the home for people who mainly need company and reassurance. There is 1 family currently looking for care in the wider area.

What companion care looks like here: spending time talking, supporting hobbies, taking someone to a local café or chapel, walking in the countryside, running light errands and doing gentle domestic tasks that help a person stay comfortable and confident at home. Most people need emotional support, reassurance and companionship rather than personal care, so your role is centred on listening, being reliable and creating a calm, social routine.

This type of work suits people who have warmth, patience and good communication. If you prefer fewer personal-care tasks and more time to build relationships, companion care in Clun could be a good fit. Many carers choose to work in a handful of hours each week alongside other commitments, while others offer regular daytime support. Typical pay is £19.10–£21.50 per hour and you set your own rates as a self-employed carer through PrimeCarers. You choose your clients, hours and service area, so you control the balance between work and life.

PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work. We make the admin simple so you can focus on caring. You can cover Clun and nearby towns such as Bishops Castle, Knighton, Craven Arms, Presteigne, Montgomery and Church Stretton if you wish, or concentrate only on a short local area.

Requirements to join are straightforward: at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We are looking for reliable, kind people used to working with older or vulnerable adults. PrimeCarers supports self-employed carers who want more control than traditional agency work without taking on all the admin alone.

Applying only takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once accepted you can start browsing suitable introductions and choose who you want to meet. If you’re already working in Shropshire and want to change how you work — keep your autonomy and get admin support — this is a practical next step.

To apply, create your profile on PrimeCarers, upload basic documents and references, and tell us about the kind of companion roles you prefer. We check everything promptly and will be in touch about verification so your profile can go live as quickly as possible.
