2. South Banks 72.8%
3. Wycombe 62.2%
4. Chiltern 51.9%

As the proportion of older people in the population grows, the number of people with living with dementia and other ability-reducing diseases increases and with it the need for self-funded support.

Stokenchurch, Great Missenden and Buckingham are Dementia friendly areas. There is a useful community to signpost older people to support called BOCG covering the Aylesbury Vale, Chiltern, South Bucks and Wycombe districts

Unpaid carers  Unpaid carers make up ten percent of the total population in Buckinghamshire – that’s around 45,000 people across all the communities in the county. 

There are no other homecare providers in Buckinghamshire with the S.A.F.E care award relating to COVID-19 

Staff turnover in care companies in Buckinghamshire is above the national average. Clients complain that different carers turn up most days, meaning they must explain their needs all over again.

We would therefore expect a high level of excitement when Seniors Helping Seniors arrives in Buckinghamshire.
