Lewy body dementia is a progressive neurological condition affecting memory, movement, and cognition due to abnormal protein deposits in the brain.
Lewy body dementia (LBD) is caused by abnormal deposits of a protein called alpha-synuclein, which form inside the brain's nerve cells, disrupting their function. These deposits, known as Lewy bodies, impact brain areas involved in thinking, movement, and memory. For every 100 people with dementia, approximately 10 to 15 are diagnosed with LBD, meaning around 100,000 individuals in the UK are affected.
Symptoms of Lewy body dementia can include visual hallucinations, fluctuating attention, rigid muscles, and difficulties with movement and balance. As the disease progresses, these symptoms can make everyday tasks increasingly challenging, necessitating comprehensive care and support. Early diagnosis and tailored care plans are essential in managing the condition and enhancing the quality of life for those affected.
“Helping someone with Lewy Body Dementia isn't just a job for me. It's about making a real difference in their daily life. I love seeing the smiles and knowing I’ve made things a bit easier for them. Every day is unique, and I’m here to support them and their families. Whether it’s helping with meals, attending appointments, or just having a chat, I’m always ready to lend a hand.”
Home care provides essential person-centred care and supports tailored to the needs of your loved one with Lewy body dementia. This personalised care improves their quality of life by assisting with personal care, medication routines, meal preparation, and domestic tasks. Our carers are trained to help with routines and medication recommended by professionals and to accompany your loved one to medical and other appointments.
Carers also assist with shopping and outings, ensuring your loved one remains active and engaged. Home care fosters a supportive environment, reducing stress and providing peace of mind for the entire family. With our compassionate carers, your loved one receives the highest level of care, making everyday life easier and more enjoyable.

Our home care service is based on personal experience.

At Tiggo Care we understand how precious your loved one is to you and how unique they are. We also appreciate how overwhelming it can be to research and source the most suitable type of care.
We fundamentally believe that there is no ‘one size fits all’ care package and like to work with you and your loved one to understand your specific requirements. We’ll then create a tailored care package and match your relative with their ideal carer.
Unlike some other care providers, we are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission. This means we are regularly inspected, rated and audited to ensure we are a safe, effective, caring, responsive and well led organisation, committed to delivering the best possible care.
We’re also proud members of the Homecare Association, the U.K’s membership body for home care providers, which holds organisations to a high set of standards and requests them to abide by a strict code of practice
At Tiggo Care, all of our carers undergo a rigorous recruitment and induction process. They are fully vetted and background checked, with all references followed up. Our carers undertake their training on the best eLearning system currently available within the UK care market, ensuring they are well placed to deliver the best possible service. Specialist training courses such as moving and handling, medications and basic life support are also completed by our carers face to face, as we feel these courses are more effective when delivered in person.
