Live-in care is a great option for those who want regular support with as few carers as possible. With our live-in care service, a single care assistant will live with you for an extended period of time and they will be available throughout the day to provide you with planned and ad hoc care support. Visit our live-in care page to learn more about this service.
Tiggo Care offers both waking night care, where a carer stays awake throughout the night, and sleeping night care, where a carer is on standby for emergencies.

Barbican lies in central London, within the local authority of the City of London rather than Wandsworth. The area centres on the striking Barbican Estate, a bold 1960s development of towers, terraces, and elevated walkways. Around a serene pond with a terraced café, the Barbican Centre anchors cultural life — theatre, music, art exhibitions, film — all under one roof. Nearby, you’ll find the Museum of London, ruins of the Roman city wall, modern office towers, and classy bars tucked between Brutalist architecture. For older adults and people with disabilities, Barbican offers walkable streets, good public transport (tube stations like Barbican, Farringdon, and Moorgate), and easy access to green havens such as Postman’s Park and the nearby riverside. It’s a city centre location with culture and calm side by side.
If you’re living in or near Barbican and want to feel more confident using your phone, tablet, or laptop, we recommend visiting the Barbican Library drop-in sessions run by Age UK City of London. Every Tuesday evening from 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm, friendly volunteers are on hand to offer free, practical help with everyday tech questions. Whether you’re puzzled by updates, unsure about online scams, or simply want to make your device’s battery last longer, you’ll find patient support here. Complete beginners are very welcome, and there’s no need to book — just bring your charged device and drop by. Tea, coffee, and biscuits make it a warm, relaxed setting for learning something new.
If you’d like to know more or attend a session, you can reach the team at digitalinclusion@ageukcityoflondon.org.uk or call 020 3488 6884. The sessions take place at Barbican Library, Silk Street, London EC2Y 8DS.
If you’re looking for something sociable and engaging to do in the heart of London, we suggest joining the community activities at Barbican Library. Every Thursday from 3pm to 7pm, the Games Club invites you to enjoy classics like Chess or Scrabble, or bring along your own game to share with others. It’s a great way to meet new friends and have some light-hearted fun. For those who enjoy crafts, the He Knits Club meets every third Thursday of the month from 6 pm to 7:30 pm, welcoming anyone who wants to learn or share their knitting skills in a relaxed and inclusive setting.
For book lovers, the Reading Groups meet monthly to discuss a mix of fiction and non-fiction titles. All activities are free and open to everyone. To find out more, contact Barbican Library at barbicanlib@cityoflondon.gov.uk or call 020 7638 0569. The library is located at Silk Street, London EC2Y 8DS.
Our 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..."

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 and ensures that 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 our carers undergo a rigorous recruitment and induction process. They are fully vetted and background checked, with all references followed up. Our carers also 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.
