What it costs:
Registration & Agency Fees
Helpful HomeSupporters are self-employed, and we act as an introductory agency. We believe in fair pay for great work, which means your HomeSupporter receives the full benefit of what you pay them, while we simply charge a clear, straightforward monthly on-going Agency Introductory Fee.
Getting started is easy:
When you first register with us, we will discuss your individual requirements, including the approx. number of hours you would like a HomeSupporter to provide each week.
- We charge a one-off Registration Fee* of £75.00+VAT (which includes your first month’s Agency Introduction Fee)
- Ongoing monthly Agency Introduction Fee of just 10%+VAT, based on what you pay your HomeSupporter
Your HomeSupporter will log their hours and submit their invoice directly to you for payment. You can agree a payment schedule that suits you both – daily, weekly, or monthly.
