Welcome to Home Instead Tavistock and Tamar Valley – serving Tavistock, Launceston, Saltash, Torpoint, Holsworthy, Bude and more.
Home Instead Tavistock and Tamar Valley is owned and operated by Lynn Roddy. Together with my team we are committed to delivering high quality care to older people in their own homes to help them feel happy and comfortable. We aim to provide the support they need to remain independent for as long as possible. Whether it’s just a listening ear to share memories with, company for a walk to the shops or park, help with house work and meals, or more personal care. We provide the assurance to them and their families that they are being looked after with respect and empathy allowing them to maintain their dignity and most importantly to remain in their own home.
