Companionship work suits experienced carers who value flexibility and meaningful time with people: regular chats over tea, trips to the shops or park, hobby sessions, fussing with letters or light household tidying and providing reassurance. Many of our carers in Topsham work with people who need company more than hands‑on clinical support. You can tailor visits around activities the person enjoys, from walks along the Exe estuary to indoor pastimes.

As a self‑employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose which bookings to accept. Typical pay for this kind of work is £19–£25 per hour. PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments; insurance is included while you work, so you can focus on caring rather than paperwork.

To join, you must have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this) and verifiable references. We do not advertise one single role here — we list ongoing opportunities for self‑employed carers across Topsham and nearby areas like Exeter, Exmouth, Dawlish, Budleigh Salterton, Chudleigh and Ottery St Mary in Devon.
