Written by the company

At Like Family, we believe life is meant to be shared, and the right support can make all the difference. That’s why we connect people who are in need of social care and companionship with trusted Social Carers who truly make a difference. More than just helping with day-to-day activities, our Carers bring warmth, connection, and joy, ensuring that life is full, active, fun and meaningful. We go beyond traditional support by matching people based on needs, personalities, and interests—because at Like Family, it’s not just about care. It’s about connection. Our Story When Mat was 26, both his mum and dad were diagnosed with life-threatening illnesses. He and his partner Jenna quickly realised that while medical care was essential, what his parents really needed was company—someone to spend time with, share experiences, and help them stay connected to their community. They needed someone like family when Mat and Jenna couldn’t be there. That’s how Like Family was born—to connect people with Social Carers who do more than just a job. They become a meaningful part of someone’s life, providing support, friendship, and a sense of belonging.
