Young onset dementia can be overwhelming for families, but Tiggo Care’s specialised home care in London offers compassionate support tailored to your loved one's unique needs.
Tiggo Care understands the unique challenges of young onset dementia. We provide person-centred care that allows your loved one to live comfortably at home, where they feel most secure. As young onset dementia progresses, daily activities become increasingly difficult, and moving to a care home may not be ideal—your loved one might find themselves surrounded by much older people with activities that don’t suit their interests.
Our dedicated carers offer compassionate support, assisting with personal care, meal preparation, domestic tasks, and helping your loved one maintain their quality of life. Our carers also help with medication routines and can escort your loved one to social events. Contact us today to discuss how Tiggo Care can support your loved one at home.
Whatever your care needs and wherever your loved one is on their care journey, please contact us and let’s talk. We're here to help.
Young onset dementia occurs when dementia symptoms develop in people under 65 years old, affecting their movement, coordination, and daily life.
Over 70,800 people in the UK live with this condition, facing unique challenges due to the early onset of symptoms. This condition affects the brain, leading to memory loss, confusion, and difficulties with thinking, reasoning, and communication. This form of dementia can lead to challenges in movement, walking, and coordination, which may significantly impact daily activities.
Young onset dementia is more likely to have a genetic component, with around 10% of cases being inherited. Unlike dementia in older adults, young onset dementia often disrupts a person’s career, family life, and social relationships at a time when they are usually very active. It can be particularly challenging because symptoms may be mistaken for stress or depression. Early diagnosis is crucial to managing the condition effectively and accessing the right support.
"I love getting to know the people I care for. It’s about more than just helping with the day-to-day stuff. We have a laugh, share stories, and find little ways to make life brighter. Everyone’s different, so I always make sure to listen and understand what matters most to them. It’s about making sure they feel supported, respected, and comfortable in their own home. That’s what really counts."
Young onset dementia home care offers a tailored approach to supporting your loved one, allowing them to stay in the comfort of their home while receiving the care they need. As the symptoms of young onset dementia progress, daily tasks like personal care, meal preparation, and managing medication routines can become overwhelming.
Tiggo Care’s home care services in London, such as live-in care, home care visits, and respite care, provide compassionate support, ensuring these tasks are handled with dignity and respect. Moving to a care home isn’t always the best option for younger people, as they might be surrounded by much older people with activities that don’t suit their needs or interests. Home care enables your loved one to maintain a sense of independence and familiarity while still participating in social activities and outings that are meaningful to them.
Our home care services are based on personal experience.
We understand, first-hand how important it is to secure flexible and bespoke home care for your loved one.
“Tiggo Care is born out of my own personal experiences, following my struggle to find suitable care for my parents, both of whom lived with rare diseases..."
Chris Williams - Tiggo Care Founder
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.
