Real stories from the people who matter most; the families we serve every day
Private care in London
Private care in London means paying for home care directly, rather than through a council or NHS referral. Private care gives you full control over who provides care, when it starts, and how it is delivered. HTR Care is a trusted home care agency in London providing private care to individuals and families across the city. Our private home care services cover personal care, nursing care, elderly care, disability care, and hospice care. We also work with clients who receive partial council support or NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) funding alongside private contributions.
