A Cup of Tea Can Mean the World ☕

Life gets busy. Work, children, errands, distance… and before we know it, days or even weeks pass by. Meanwhile, many parents and older loved ones spend long hours alone.

I offer friendly companionship and a warm chat over a cup of tea for elderly parents who may appreciate a little company during the day. Whether it’s conversation, sharing stories, playing cards, or simply enjoying a peaceful afternoon together, sometimes small moments make the biggest difference.

Perfect for busy siblings who want reassurance that Mum or Dad has someone kind to spend time with.

What I offer:

* Friendly companionship
* Tea & conversation
* Light activities and social interaction
* Reliable, caring visits
* A comforting presence for older loved ones

Because nobody should feel forgotten — and everyone deserves a friendly face and a good cuppa.

Loneliness in older adults is real — but so is their sense of humour, their stories, and their ability to absolutely destroy you at board games.

A quick call, a cup of tea, or even listening (again) to that story about “back in 1972…” can make a bigger difference than you think.

Side effects may include:
– Unexpected laughter
– Questioning how they survived without Google Maps
– Being sent home with snacks you didn’t ask for

Check in on someone older today. Worst case? You hear a story twice.
Best case? You make someone feel less alone.

And maybe learn how to fix something without YouTube.

A week working with the elderly is never the same, but it’s always rewarding. From sharing a morning cup of tea and a chat, to helping with shopping, meals, and small tasks around the home, every visit is about making someone’s day a little easier and brighter. Some days are filled with laughter and wonderful stories from years gone by, and other days it’s simply about being there and offering a listening ear. Supporting older people to stay comfortable, independent, and happy in their own homes is truly a privilege, and it’s the small moments of kindness and connection that make the work so special.

Supporting an older person at home doesn’t just help them — it also provides valuable reassurance and a well-deserved break for their family. Caring for a loved one can be incredibly rewarding, but it can also be demanding. By offering reliable, compassionate support with daily tasks, companionship, and general help around the home, families can take time to rest, focus on their own responsibilities, and simply enjoy quality time with their loved one without the pressure of doing everything themselves. Knowing someone caring and trustworthy is there can bring real peace of mind

If you’d like to find out more about my services, please feel free to send me a message. I’d be happy to have a friendly chat and see how I can help.

I am a local lady who has a small business called Heaven Scent and I work alongside the elderly and their families in Crawley and surrounding areas

After working for large charity organisation it became so apparent that the demand for help for the elderly is not available easily.

On the flip side of this I decided to change things in my community and that’s when I opened up my business in the area I am so happy to tell you that it’s so successful and has been running for a good few years.

I offer a bespoke and totally personal
service to my clients ranging from companionship , leisure trips , small
meal preparation, domestic duties, assistance to appointments , shopping together or on their behalf and much more depending on my clients requests , wishes and needs.

I also offer relative sitting and a check in service for families that want a break or a holiday or busy working or just want to feel that they would like to just have a night at home and go home straight after work , let me take that worry from you, let me pick up the milk or get the prescription or the food shop .or have a chat and a cup of tea with your loved one

The beauty of Heaven Scent is that it’s a private service meaning I can spend time with my clients for one or two hour slots weekly or fortnightly and can mould the package to exactly what’s required by each individual and the only face they will see is mine , there will not be different people coming and going, which can cause anxiety and un certainty in the older generation.

If you think that I can be of help to yourself , parents or parent, friends and family please do not hesitate to get in contact for a very informal chat

Another year has passed helping the elderly community of Crawley and surrounding areas , running my small local business Heaven Scent

At Christmas time it becomes even more obvious that loneliness is a huge problem , lack of friends and family, isolation and housebound clients.

I know that during 2022 and all the previous years of working in the community I bring companionship , help around the home, transport to appointments , leisure trips out, keeping homes clean and so much more and have bought a smile to many faces amd helped out taking the pressure away from
families who are busy trying to juggle their own life whilst also trying to look after elderly family

When I first opened my small business obviously I wanted to give it a name , Heaven Scent seemed the perfect name , because if I had £1 for all the times I have been called an Angel , or you are truly Heaven Scent I could buy a castle !

If you are struggling to look after your elderly family member , or you yourself are lonely, or need help
around the home please do not hesitste to get in touch

Thank you
Julie

There is a lot of pressure on people to enjoy themselves during the holidays. The season is supposed to be merry and bright, but many elders feel increasingly isolated and unhappy this time of year.

While aging can bring wisdom and experience, there are inevitable losses that even the healthiest seniors face. Loved ones and friends fall ill and pass away. Energy and mobility levels often decrease, resulting in feelings of lost independence and opportunities. Neighborhoods change over time, leaving even those well enough to remain in their own homes feeling lonely and disconnected from their communities.

According to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), socially isolated older adults are at higher risk for depression. The focus on family, friends and togetherness during this time of year can actually bring melancholy feelings to the forefront for many elders. It’s more important than ever to be supportive of and attentive to our loved ones, but in ways that keep everyone as safe and healthy as possible.

If you believe that an aging parent, friend or neighbor may be feeling lonely or depressed, there are steps you can take to help lift their spirits. You are probably busy with adapting your own holiday plans and traditions, but we must remind ourselves what the holiday season is truly about. Simplifying some things will allow you to focus on what really matters: the important people in your life.

I find this time of year a particularly hard one looking after my clients especially those on their own loneliness is a big problem in my day to day life of Heaven Scent and my visits around the community of Crawley and surrounding areas we assume that they will be packing up for the Christmas break to go and stay with friends and family sadly this is not always the case

Last week was a very busy week putting up decorations and making cakes and going to the supermarkets to buy Christmas presents for my clients families and on the other side of the coin I came across sadness and loneliness which always seems so much more apparent at this time of year

I will always endeavour to gain a smile and give a gentle touch to my clients as simple things go such a long way

Why do seniors feel the cold?

There are a number of reasons that older people can feel cold frequently, even in a temperature that you or I would feel comfortable in.

One reason for feeling the cold is that as we age, our metabolic rate decreases, which means we struggle to maintain a comfortable temperature.

Medicine and some prescribed drugs can have the effect of decreasing our body temperature. – for example, ‘beta blockers’ can lower the heart rate, which in turn, reduces the blood pressure in our bodies, especially the circulation to hands and feet.
Undiagnosed conditions, such as diabetes or hypertension could be a reason why they feel cold all the time, sometimes feeling cold all the time is the reason that people actually see and doctor and get a diagnosis of diabetes or hypertension.
As we get older we can see a decrease in blood circulation as the walls of the blood vessels loose elasticity.
The fat layer under the skin can decrease, leaving us feeling colder.
Thyroid conditions and high cholesterol can also reduce blood flow, affecting the bodies ability to regulate temperature.

A lower metabolic rate is perhaps one of the most common reason for elderly people feeling the cold.

A metabolic rate is the rate at which our bodies can burn calories. As we get older, this metabolic rate can slow down, which reduces how quickly we process the energy we put into our bodies. This energy is what human bodies use to fuel our body temperature and how we stay warm. If the metabolic rate slows down, we are more likely to feel cold more often.

As I carry out my visits to my clients each week I often come across the above in many cases I always make sure that I make them as comfortable as possible and encourage blankets and warm socks and slippers and hot drinks and of course make sure food has been eaten as very often with short term memory loss , dementia and altzheimers these actions are not carried out.

if you are worried about your loved ones please do not hesitate to get in contact to see how I can help with many of the services that I offer

I am a sole trader , not an agency this is the beauty of my business I offer one or two hour slots with my clients for a 1-1 bespoke personal service, tailor made for every client and their family needs

More often than not, elderly people still struggle along on their own, even when things get too much they can be reluctant to ask for any help.

This can lead to them living a restricted lifestyle, in fear of causing an inconvenience to their family and friends, ending up lonely and depressed.

By offering a helping hand , I am not only helping people physically but also mentally. They will benefit from my physical help of shopping, picking up a prescription or driving them for a lovely trip out, light domestic help around the home or even preparing lunch/dinner and doing a puzzle together.

This is paramount for mental health and especially in the cold winter months and early dark evenings that are upon us

Good morning !

Over these last couple of weeks I have been particularly involved in helping the families of my clients that have to go to work but have loved ones at home that they are worried about leaving alone for long periods of time due to not being safe or being un well or being lonely, forgetting to eat and drink and take medication.

The services that I offer really do take the pressure and worry away from the family as I am able to spend a good amount of time with their loved ones rather than a very quick visit from NHS care staff as they are on a very tight time schedule and just can’t offer the time.

I have carried out a range of activities from companionship, preparing meals , helping with crosswords and jigsaws and much much more over the last couple of weeks.

I have taken my clients out spending time walking among or simply looking at trees and flowers and all of the beautiful things that nature offers us which lowers blood pressure and reduces the stress-related hormones cortisol and adrenaline. Improves mood — Researchers have found that nature simply makes us happy!!

Can I take any pressure and stress away from you ? Please get in touch
