Companionship Services
More than care – genuine friendship & connection
Companionship & Support Available
Loneliness and isolation can affect anyone, but they’re particularly common challenges in later life. At Opieka, our companionship services provide much more than just a visit – we offer genuine connection, conversation, and company that can truly enhance your wellbeing and quality of life.
Whether you’re looking for someone to share a cup of tea and a chat with, or you’d like support to get out and about more, our friendly companions are here to bring social interaction, mental stimulation, and entertainment into your day.

Companionship & Connection
Building meaningful relationships
You deserve more than just the television or radio for company. Our companions take time to get to know you – your interests, your life story, your sense of humor. We match you with someone who shares your interests and values genuine connection.
Regular companionship visits can help combat feelings of loneliness, provide mental stimulation, encourage physical activity, and give you something to look forward to. Many of our clients tell us that their companion has become like a friend, bringing light and laughter into their week.
Flexible Companionship
Your interests, your schedule, your choice
Some weeks you might feel like getting out to the seaside, other times a quiet afternoon playing cards at home is more appealing. Our companionship services flex to match your mood, energy, and interests.
Choose how often you’d like visits – weekly, twice weekly, or more frequently. Decide on the length of each visit based on how you’re feeling. Want to try new activities or stick to familiar favourites? It’s entirely up to you.
Support for any reason
Whatever you need, we’re here to help
Life throws up all sorts of situations where an extra pair of hands makes all the difference. At Opieka, we provide support for any reason – you don’t need to fit into a specific category or have complex care needs to ask for our help.
Perhaps you need someone to help you prepare your home before family visits, assistance organising a special occasion, or support getting to an important appointment. Maybe you’re feeling under the weather and need help with shopping and meals for a few days, or you’d like someone to sit with a loved one while you take a well-earned break.
