Olden Goldies is a wonderful organisation. My mum thoroughly enjoys her outings with Gaynor. She is very helpful and caring. The schedules are well organised and they are able to help with some extra slots when I am on holiday. Staff are proactive and have a mature compassionate approach. Communication is excellent. They respond to WhatsApp messages quickly. Highly recommended.
Response from the owner:Thank you Laura for your lovely words. We're so pleased to receive great feedback. Gaynor loves taking your mum oot & aboot.

Absolute godsend for my mum and my family. They always listen to what my mum likes and wants to do , so friendly and for my mum it’s simply going out with her friend for the day . These guys allow her to get out and visit places she’s either lost confidence to go as she’s gotten older or to take her new place to meet new people. She’s safe , happy and above all has great company . I can’t thank my lucky stars enough to have them in our lives
Response from the owner:Hi Gwen, thank you for your review. The ladies love taking your mum out... she's such great company and always full of fun. So pleased to hear that we make a difference in all of your lives.

Barbara and her team having been supporting my elderly aunt for some years. I have been consistently impressed by their commitment and professionalism - and their readiness to form a close, friendly relationship with their client. The whole family are very conscious of the way staff regularly go 'above and beyond' in all sorts of ways. There is no question but that they have enriched and enhanced my aunt's life as she has moved into her nineties. Just wonderful!
Response from the owner:Thank you Kenneth for your lovely feedback. So lovely that we can also continue to visit your aunt and take her out occasionally.

The ladies at Olden Goldies are a pleasure to work with. They have looked after my aunt for nearly a year, visiting her at home, taking her to medical appointments as well as out for coffee mornings. They have been both jolly and caring. I marvel at their ability to manage the often complex business of companionship. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.
Olden Goldies have been fantastic from initial visit with Barbara to assess mums needs and get to know more about her, to pairing her up with the right companion. Mum looks forward to her visits from Rachel and they are always getting up to something new!! .I receive an update letting me know how each visit has gone. A truly fantastic service which means I can take time out whilst knowing mum is in the best hands.
Response from the owner:Hi Ann-Marie, thank you for the wonderful review and your kind words. It is fantastic that your mum has started going out with Anne and they are both really enjoying each others company.
