Self-employed micro-providers run their own small business (micro-enterprise) to provide paid for support or care for people in their local community. They help local people with everyday tasks, so that they can stay well, get out and about and live as independently as possible. They make a positive difference supporting local people.
There’s a wide range of services that you might provide, including:
- meal preparation
- shopping
- companionship
- help at home
- de-cluttering
- PA services
- cleaning
- gardening
- care provision
- mobile hairdressing
- accompanying on walks
- dog walking
- handyperson services
- holistic therapies
Providing these small, flexible and personalised services means that local people (your clients) have more and better choice over the type of support they receive, when and how they want it and who provides it.
