About us

Good Company, Right on Your Doorstep

We founded The Good Company People as a not-for-profit organisation to help over 65s enjoy more independent, fulfilling lives for longer.

 

Our journey began with our Co-Founder, Lucy's beloved mother Hazel, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease Dementia at 69. Lucy's goal was to enable her mum to continue enjoying her favourite activities like sewing, baking, and arts and crafts while providing her dad with regular respite from caregiving. Thus, The Good Company People was born!

Our values

We believe that trust and respect are the cornerstones of all meaningful relationships.
