Home care across Lambeth
Lambeth runs a long way south from the river. Waterloo and the South Bank are at the top, then Kennington, Vauxhall and Stockwell, then Brixton and Clapham, and further south Streatham, Tulse Hill and West Norwood.
Housing ranges from Georgian squares in Kennington to Victorian terraces in Clapham and large blocks of flats, often with stairs and lifts that are not always reliable. Brixton and Streatham have busy high streets, and Clapham Common, Brockwell Park and Streatham Common are good for a walk. A carer can help with daily routines, errands and getting out of the house.
Viola is an introductory agency: we introduce vetted, self-employed carers, you choose, and we handle the paperwork and payments.
