Description

Companionship care in Wrexham is about conversation, local outings, shared hobbies and light help around the home. If you enjoy being a regular, reassuring presence — taking a client for a walk, sharing a cuppa and a chat, or helping with shopping and small household tasks — these roles are built for you. Many families in Wrexham want someone reliable who brings warmth and company rather than clinical care. Right now, 2 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

PrimeCarers connects self‑employed carers with families across Wrexham and nearby areas such as Rhosnesni, Rhosllannerchrugog, Overton on Dee, Farndon, Chirk and Llangollen. Carers set their own rates and choose who they work with, the hours they do, and the service area they cover. Typical companion roles on the platform fall within £19–£20 per hour; you can see hourly and live‑in guide ranges on your dashboard: £19–£20 per hour (hourly) and £145–£160 per day (live‑in day rates).

This type of work suits experienced care workers who prefer less physical lifting and more company‑focused shifts. Tasks commonly include: spending time talking, supporting hobbies, accompanying clients to local shops or clubs, light meal prep, and reassurance around the house. You’ll be spending much of your time in people’s homes across Wrexham — building trust, noticing small changes, and helping someone stay independent and content.

We’re looking for carers with at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you need it), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. Insurance is included while you work through the platform, and PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on caring.

If you’re currently with an agency but want greater control over your working life in Wrexham and Cheshire, PrimeCarers can be a practical alternative. You’ll choose who you accept and when, and many carers value being able to build ongoing, local relationships rather than shift‑by‑shift work.

Applying takes minutes — create a profile, upload checks and references, and we typically get profiles live within days of verification. Once live, you can browse requests, message families directly and accept the opportunities that suit you.
