A Brecon home care agency has been named one of the top 20 home care providers in Wales.

Silver Assist Homecare was recognised for its quality care and commitment to supporting people in the community.

The award, presented by homecare.co.uk - a leading reviews website for home care services - places Silver Assist among an elite group out of 390 providers in Wales and over 13,000 across the UK.

The annual top 20 awards aim to highlight high-quality home care providers, helping people and families find trusted care suited to their needs, budgets, and locations. Home care is vital for nearly a million disabled and older people across the UK, supporting them with daily tasks such as washing, dressing, meal preparation, and medication management - enabling them to live independently in their own homes.

With an ageing population, the demand for home care is expected to rise dramatically. According to the Office for National Statistics, the number of people aged 65 and over in the UK could reach 22.1 million by 2072, representing 27 per cent of the population

Samantha Evans, manager of Silver Assist Homecare said: “We are incredibly proud and honoured to be named one of the Top 20 homecare Providers in Wales for the second consecutive year. This recognition is a true testament to the dedication, compassion and hard work of our entire team.

“At Silver Assist Homecare, we believe that great care is built on genuine relationships, kindness and respect. Our carers go above and beyond every day to ensure that the people we support receive the highest standard of care in the comfort of their own homes. Winning this award two years in a row reflects not only the quality of our service but also the commitment and passion of our staff.

“We would also like to thank our clients and their families for trusting us to be a part of their lives.

“This award motivates us to continue striving for excellence and to keep making a positive impact in our community.”

Amanda Hopkins, reviews manager of homecare.co.uk, said: “Top quality home care is vital as it supports people so they can continue living in their own homes and retain their independence. People who are less mobile due to illness, a disability or age can become hidden away from society. When this happens their home care worker often plays a crucial role in keeping them both mentally and physically well.

“Our reviews are by those who receive the home care as well as their family and friends. This helps others to search for the right care provider, where compassion, trust and empathy are at the heart of their care.

“Silver Assist Homecare has shown it provides high-quality care and we would like to congratulate it on being one of the top home care providers in Wales!”
