THE EVERYDAY THINGS THAT MATTER
Life feels better
with good company.
Sometimes it’s a shared cup of tea. Sometimes it’s the confidence to get out and enjoy the day. These are the kinds of support we can talk about together.
Out & about
A gentle walk, a café visit or a browse around the garden centre. Enjoying the places you love, at your pace.
A helping hand
Company on shopping trips and practical help with everyday errands, with the arrangements agreed together.
A break for family carers
Company for your loved one while you see friends, get out or take a little time for yourself, where their support needs can be met.
Hobbies & shared interests
A crossword, a favourite album or a project you enjoy. Making time for familiar interests and discovering things together.
Company at appointments
Someone alongside you in the waiting room, and a friendly conversation along the way. Discuss travel and access needs in advance.
Keeping in touch
Time to write a card, look through family photographs or share a call with someone you miss. Little ways to feel connected.
Your familiar routines
Visits shaped around the rhythm of your day: a morning chat, an afternoon activity or something to look forward to each week.
CONNECTION MAKES A DIFFERENCE
Feeling less alone.
More to look forward to.
When days feel quiet, having someone to talk to can mean a great deal. A familiar face, shared laughter and plans to look forward to can help ease loneliness and lift the day.
Companionship can support emotional wellbeing and make it easier to stay connected, enjoy familiar interests and take part in everyday life. Feeling more connected can also encourage everyday routines and gentle activity, supporting overall wellbeing.
Lisa’s aim is to build a relationship around the person: what they enjoy, what they find difficult and what would make their week feel brighter.

What could your day look like?
There’s no single way to spend time together. Start with the things you enjoy,
and talk with Lisa about the support that would suit you.
01 / A LITTLE COMPANY AT HOME
A shared interest.
A proper connection.
An afternoon feels different when there’s someone to share it with. A jigsaw over a cup of tea, looking through family photographs or hearing a story you’ve always loved telling.

- Reading, crosswords and favourite board games
- Enjoying music or a shared hobby
02 / SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO
Fresh air.
Familiar places.
A gentle stroll with time to stop, a visit to a favourite café or a browse around the garden centre. Company to enjoy the outing with, at a pace that feels comfortable.
- Gentle walks and a change of scenery
- Café visits and local outings
- Company while enjoying familiar interests
03 / AN EXTRA PAIR OF HANDS
Everyday errands.
A little easier.
Choosing something for supper or working through the shopping list can become a chance to spend time together. Discuss the practical help you’d find useful, while keeping your choices at the centre.
- Company on shopping trips
- Help with everyday errands, by arrangement
- Someone alongside you at appointments
A shared interest
A jigsaw on the table, a favourite album or an afternoon discussing a good book. There’s time for what makes you, you.

Connection for families
If you’re looking for company for someone close to you, start a conversation together about their wishes and how they’d like family involved.
The best place to start? A cup of tea and a chat.CARING HAS ALWAYS BEEN PART OF WHO I AM
Hello, I’m Lisa.
Lovely to meet you.
I’ve spent years in roles that have brought me close to older members of our community. Getting to know people, listening to their stories and making time for a real conversation have always mattered to me.
But it was my mum, Violet, who showed me just how much companionship can mean. As she moved into her nineties, I saw the incredible value of connection: a familiar face, a shared laugh and someone with time to listen.
Violet’s Footsteps is inspired by her memory. It brings together what I learned alongside Mum and my own experience of connecting with older people, offering thoughtful companionship across our local community.
I’d love to hear what you enjoy and what would make your week feel brighter. We can start with a conversation, with your wishes at the heart of it.

Let’s get to know each otherTHE HEART BEHIND THE NAME
In memory of Violet.
A legacy of connection.
Violet was Lisa’s mum, and the inspiration for Violet’s Footsteps. As Violet reached her nineties, Lisa saw how much it meant to have someone to talk with, share everyday moments with and feel connected to.
Violet is no longer here, but that lesson stays with Lisa. This service carries her memory forward through time, kindness and companionship for older people in our community.

TIME FOR YOU, TOO
When you care for someone,
you need care too.
Looking after a husband, wife, partner or family member can be a big part of everyday life. Your own friendships, interests and time to rest still matter.
Perhaps you’d like to meet a friend for lunch, go for a walk, keep an appointment or simply enjoy a little time to yourself. Having someone spend time with your loved one can make room for that break.
Taking time for yourself isn’t something to feel guilty about. A chance to rest and reconnect with your own life can help you return feeling more refreshed and supported in your caring role.
Lisa will meet you and your loved one first, listen to what you both need and agree what she can help with. Where companionship is the right fit, she can offer company while you take some time for yourself.
These visits offer companionship, rather than nursing or hands-on personal care. Before you leave your loved one in Lisa’s company, you’ll agree their needs, the arrangements and how to contact you.
Talk about a little breathing space
LET’S TAKE IT ONE STEP AT A TIME
It starts with a conversation.
Before visits begin, Lisa meets you and, if you wish, your family. Together, you can work out what support would make a difference.
Say hello
Start with a friendly conversation about yourself or your loved one, the situation at home and what you hope companionship could bring.
Meet you & your family
Lisa meets the person she’ll support and any family they want involved. There’s time to share interests, ask questions and see whether everyone feels comfortable.
Agree a plan together
Decide what you want to achieve, which activities would help and how visits will fit your routine. Companionship is £25 per hour, with arrangements agreed before starting.
CLOSE TO HOME
A local face.
A warm welcome.
Companionship in Tarporley, Northwich and Winsford, and nearby villages. Your location and the practical details can be discussed when you get in touch.
A FEW THINGS YOU MAY BE WONDERING
A little more
reassurance.
Can I enquire on behalf of a loved one?
Yes. You can start the conversation as a family member or friend. The person receiving companionship should be involved in deciding what feels right for them.
What support can we arrange?
Start by discussing companionship and everyday activities. The exact tasks, practical arrangements and boundaries will need to be agreed with Lisa before any visits begin.
Can Lisa offer company while I take a break from caring?
Where companionship meets your loved one’s needs, Lisa can spend time with them while you take a break. You’ll meet first to discuss routines, the support required and contact arrangements. Visits do not include nursing or hands-on personal care; any needs beyond companionship must be discussed before a visit is agreed.
How much do visits cost?
Lisa’s companionship rate is £25 per hour. You’ll discuss the support you need, visit length and practical arrangements together before booking. Any separate outing expenses or travel arrangements should also be agreed in advance.
Is this a nursing or personal care service?
This website introduces a companionship service. Nursing, medication administration and hands-on personal care are not advertised here. Please discuss any specific needs before arranging support.
