How it works

Four steps.
No surprises.

Nothing is confirmed until both sides have agreed. You can stop at any point, for any reason.

01

Browse

See companions near you with their rate, services and verification badges. No account needed to look.

02

Request

Pick a date, time and place. Say whether the visit is for you, or for someone you care for.

03

Agree

They accept or decline. Once accepted, a private message thread opens between the two of you.

04

Meet

The visit happens. Afterwards they can share a short update — useful if you booked for a relative.

Pricing

Pay for time,
not access.

Browsing, requesting and messaging are free on every tier. A subscription buys continuity — not permission.

Occasional company, arranged as and when you want it.

Thinking of becoming a companion?

Companions set their own hourly rate up to their tier's limit and keep the majority of every booking. Joining as a Flexi companion is free; Gold and Exclusive carry a lower commission in exchange for a monthly subscription.

Family Hub

Arrange it for
someone you love.

Book on behalf of a parent or relative, add what a companion should know, and hear how each visit actually went.

Save who you care for

Their name, your relationship, and anything a companion should know — mobility, preferences, what they enjoy talking about.

A note after each visit

A short, human update from the companion. Not a clinical report — and never a substitute for care.

You stay in control

You arrange every visit yourself. Nothing recurring ever starts without you choosing it.

Before anyone is listed
Every companion
Basic DBS checkRequired

Completed and reviewed by us before a profile can appear in the marketplace.

References verifiedRequired

Contacted and checked by a real person, not an automated form.

Identity confirmedRequired

Matched against the name and details given on their application.

Safety

Vetted first.
Listed second.

Nobody appears in the marketplace until all three checks are done. We'd rather grow slowly than list someone we haven't verified.

Companionship, nothing else

Social company only — never romantic, never intimate, and never a substitute for medical or personal care.

Either side can say no

Cancel before a request is accepted, or simply don’t book again. No contracts, no obligation.

Concerns reach a person

Report anything that didn’t feel right and it’s reviewed by someone here — not an algorithm.

Questions

Before you start.

Is this a care service?

No. Companions provide social company only — conversation, walks, outings, and being alongside you at appointments. They do not provide medical, nursing or personal care, and cannot administer medication.

Is this a dating service?

No, and it never will be. Every visit is companionship in a public or pre-agreed setting. Nothing romantic or intimate is part of any booking, and that applies without exception.

How are companions checked?

Every companion completes a Basic DBS check, has their references verified by a real person, and has their identity confirmed — all before their profile can appear. You can see these badges on every profile.

What does it cost?

Joining and browsing is free. Companions set their own hourly rate within their tier’s limit — up to £17 on Flexi, £25 on Gold, and £100 on Exclusive. Gold and Exclusive add a monthly subscription for regular visits and Family Hub.

Where do you operate?

Across the North East: NE, SR, DH, TS and DL postcodes. We’re deliberately starting close to home so we can vet properly before growing.

Can I book for my mum or dad?

Yes — that’s exactly what Family Hub is for. Save who you’re arranging for, add anything a companion should know, and get a short update after each visit.

Start with one visit.

Browse companions near you, send a request, and see how it feels. Nothing is confirmed until you both agree.
