Description
Help people living with dementia remain at home, in familiar surroundings, with routines and companionship that make a real difference. PrimeCarers connects self‑employed dementia support carers with families in Ledbury who need patient, consistent at‑home care. You choose the clients you accept, the hours you work and the area you serve. Right now, 9 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Work typically involves supporting people with daily routines, meaningful companionship, practical prompts for medication and appointments, and personal care where needed. Gentle, steady approaches and reliable routines are what make home life more comfortable for someone with dementia; your role will be about preserving dignity and familiar patterns rather than rushing through tasks. Many carers who join us come from agency backgrounds and value the continuity of supporting the same people in Ledbury and across Herefordshire.
As a self‑employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and working pattern, with typical pay visible as £18.80–£21.50 per hour. You can offer hourly care (typical range: £18.80–£21.50 per hour) or live‑in support (typical day range: £145–£160 per day), and decide which jobs suit you.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check; PrimeCarers can help you arrange a DBS if needed.
