My Elder
Become a Carer
Doing right by you, when you provide care a lot
When you commit to caring through the Elder platform, you can make a difference in so many ways.
You provide life-changing companionship that stops people becoming cut off from the world in later life, and you can give quality time back to families – freeing them from the worries of caring for a loved one alone.
Being a self-employed carer is an extraordinary job, and this loyalty programme has been built to celebrate and thank you for your commitment to the families you help.
