The Care Show Swindon

Check out one of our exhibitors at the show in October!

Caring for someone you love can feel overwhelming, especially when you are trying to manage everything else in life too.

iCare4 is here to give families the support they need.

We provide friendly, practical home support for older adults across Wiltshire, helping with everyday tasks, companionship and the little things that make home life feel easier.

Whether your loved one needs help with shopping, light housekeeping, appointments or simply someone kind to spend time with, we are here to help.

Because support for them can also mean peace of mind for you.

Friday thought: care is not only about meeting needs. It is about protecting dignity, independence and choice.

That is why we are proud to support conversations that bring care professionals, families, suppliers, wellbeing services and the wider community together.

Do you know a care provider, charity, community organisation or wellbeing service that leads with compassion?

The Care Awards are a chance to recognise the work that often happens quietly, consistently and without expectation of praise.

A nomination can mean so much to someone who gives their best every day.

Industry conversation: access to care.

Demand for adult social care continues to be a major national issue, with providers, councils, families and unpaid carers all feeling the pressure.

Behind every statistic is a person trying to live safely, independently and with dignity.

That is why collaboration across the sector matters.

For many families, finding care and support can feel overwhelming.

There are services, providers, options and decisions to navigate, often at an emotional time.

The Care Show is designed to make those conversations easier by bringing support, information and local organisations together in one welcoming space.
