Alwdo Assist Ltd has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Bexley with a rate on record typically charge about £23.75 an hour, so expect a figure in that range and ask for a written price list that shows weekend and bank holiday rates.

On how it works, the agency says: family app or online notes, free assessment, 21 years operating and private clients only. Details like these come from the agency's own website and change, so confirm them when you call.
