Company mission
Good Life Sorted's mission is to make the home of every older person a happy place to be, one person at a time.
Our take
The Good Life Sorted platform connects elderly people with vetted, local helpers who provide home help services such as shopping, cooking, laundry, admin support, or companionship. In a bid to make home assistance affordable and more accessible, the company separates home help from personal care.
This distinction between home help and personal care shows keen insight. After all, England alone has two million people over the age of 75 living alone, and though many may be in good health, having access to help and company could greatly improve their quality of life.
Despite only launching in 2019, Good Life Sorted has partnered with a growing number of local city and county councils across the UK, as it steadily expands operations across the country.

Company values
- Empowerment – We value initiative and encourage our helpers and our customers to choose how they want to shape their relationship and spend each visit.
- Reassurance – We want all our customers to feel supported and to know that they have someone local who they can really rely on and trust for everyday help.
- Respect – We will always respect our customers’ wishes, their home and how they live their life.
- A Bespoke Approach – there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Every relationship between customer and helper is unique and the role for each helper is built entirely around the needs and wishes of their customer.
- Positive energy – Our helpers are actively engaged in making their customers happy, by listening and observing, responding with empathy and a can-do attitude and bringing a breath of fresh air into their homes.

As a start up there are opportunities to learn and understand about all areas of our business & work closely with colleagues. I have been with the company for over 2 years and have seen it grow and achieve so much in such a short space of time.

Working with intelligent, experienced & talented people, who are also really nice is the icing on the cake for me. A great work/life balance and a team that’s small enough to care but big enough to enable you to grow and make an impact.
