PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families in and around Wennington, Lancashire. You choose which clients to work with, the hours you accept and the area you cover. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements; some prefer local roles near Bentham, Kirkby Lonsdale, Carnforth, Lancaster, Milnthorpe and Morecambe. PrimeCarers takes care of contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work, so you can focus on care rather than admin.

Pay is flexible because carers set their own rates. Typical pay sits around £145–£160 per day, with the platform showing both £19–£21.30 per hour for hourly work and £145–£160 per day for live-in day rates where applicable. You decide what to charge and which offers match your experience and lifestyle.

This type of work suits experienced, practical carers who enjoy building routine, offering companionship and delivering personalised support through personal care, medication prompts, meals and mobility assistance. You will be living in the client’s home, so good boundaries, respect for privacy and clear communication are essential. Agreed breaks are part of every live-in arrangement.

To join PrimeCarers you need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you need one.
