Company that starts with you.
Your interests. Your routine. The things you miss doing, and the things you want to try. A familiar companion to share them with.
What would you like more of in your week?
You might want someone to talk football with, a regular walk or company while you cook lunch. You might have an appointment coming up and prefer someone beside you. Or you might be tired of doing everything on your own.
Whitegreen provides one-to-one companionship and practical support for adults across Greater Manchester. You can arrange it for yourself or speak to us about someone close to you. You do not need to be unwell, live alone or have reached a particular age.
At home, with time to listen
A conversation does not need an agenda. Talk about the match, play a game, put some music on or spend an afternoon with a hobby. There is room for quiet company too. You do not have to entertain your companion or plan something special for every visit.
Getting to know each other matters. We ask about your interests and introduce a companion before visits begin, so you can decide how you get on.
Out together
Some things are easier to enjoy with company. Your companion can join you for shopping, a walk, a class, a café visit or an appointment. We plan the journey and allow time for the whole outing, including getting home.
If going out feels like a big step, start somewhere familiar. You choose the destination and the pace. Read about getting out with a companion.
Practical help, as part of the visit
A shopping list, a simple meal, sorting the post or light household jobs can fit around your time together. Tell us which tasks would make the day easier. We agree what the visit includes before it begins.
A routine that works for you
Visits can be short or last longer, depending on what you want to do. Talk to us about regular visits, an afternoon out, a full day or overnight company. We agree the hours, arrangements and price together. See our prices.
You have the same named companion for regular visits, with a named backup introduced within the first month. When something needs changing, you have the Whitegreen team to speak to.
Meet before you decide
The free meet-and-greet is a chance to talk, ask questions and see how you get on. Tell us what you enjoy and what you would like your first visit to look like. You decide whether to book.
