What we offer
Companionship shaped around you.
Every person is different. Our services are designed to fit naturally into your life — bringing warmth, company, and joy in whatever form feels right.
What we do
Olive Tree Care provides non-medical companionship for elderly adults across Croydon Borough. We're not a care agency — we're a friendly presence. Someone to talk with, go out with, and simply enjoy time with. All of our companions are carefully vetted, fully trained, and matched to each client with care.
A friendly face, whenever you need one.
Home visits and conversation
Sometimes the most meaningful thing is simply having someone to talk to. Our companions visit you at home for a cup of tea, a chat about your day, or a quiet afternoon together. There's no agenda — just genuine, unhurried company.
What's included
Getting out and about, together.
Accompanied outings
A change of scenery can do wonders. Whether it's a gentle walk in the park, a visit to a favourite café, a trip to the shops, or attending a local event — we're right by your side, making every outing enjoyable, relaxed, and safe.
What's included
Doing the things you love, with someone who cares.
Shared hobbies and activities
Staying engaged and active is so important for wellbeing. We take the time to understand what you enjoy — and then we join in. From gardening and puzzles to crafts, music, and storytelling, we share in the activities that bring you happiness.
What's included
A reassuring presence for life's smaller moments.
Light social support
Sometimes it's the small things that feel overwhelming. We can help with reading letters, making phone calls, or simply being a calm, familiar presence when you need a little extra reassurance. We're not here to take over — just to make things a little easier.
What's included
Peace of mind for you and your family.
Welfare checks
A regular, friendly check-in to make sure everything is well. Whether it's a brief visit or a longer stay, our companions provide a reassuring presence — and keep families informed so everyone can feel at ease.
What's included
There with you, every step of the way.
Accompanying to appointments
Getting to and from appointments can feel daunting alone. Our companions provide friendly, reliable accompaniment — whether it's a GP visit, hospital appointment, or any other engagement — so you never have to face it by yourself.
What's included
A warm meal, made with care.
Meal preparation
Good nutrition matters, and so does the pleasure of a proper meal. Our companions can help prepare simple, nourishing meals — making mealtimes something to enjoy rather than worry about.
What's included
A tidy home, a clearer mind.
Light domestic work
A comfortable, tidy home makes a real difference to how we feel. Our companions can help with light household tasks — not as a cleaning service, but as a natural part of spending time together and keeping things feeling manageable.
What's included
A note on what we are — and aren't
Olive Tree Care provides non-medical companionship and light practical support only. We are not a registered care provider and our companions do not offer personal care, medical assistance, or clinical support. Our domestic and meal preparation support is light and companionship-led — not a replacement for professional care or cleaning services. If you need medical or personal care services, we're happy to point you in the right direction.
Getting started
How we get started
A gentle conversation
Get in touch and we'll have a relaxed, no-obligation chat about what you're looking for and how we might help.
Finding the right match
We take care to match you with a companion who fits your personality, interests, and schedule — not just whoever's available.
A first visit
Your companion comes to meet you. There's no pressure — it's simply a chance to get to know each other at your own pace.
Regular, consistent visits
Once you're comfortable, visits begin on a schedule that works for you. We check in regularly to make sure everything feels right.
Not sure which service is right for you?
Just get in touch. We'll listen carefully and help you find the right fit — with no pressure and no rush.
