SOMA Care Services offers flexible, one-to-one practical and personal support for people who could use a little extra help in everyday life.
Sometimes life gets overwhelming — whether because of illness, disability, ageing, grief, a new baby, a busy household, neurodivergence, or simply having too much on your plate.
My aim is to step in alongside you, without judgement, and help make things feel a little more manageable.
Hi, I’m Joanne Horgan. I bring over 25 years of experience working with people in caring, health and well-being settings, along with the perspective that comes from being a mum and supporting people from all walks of life. Building genuine relationships, listening with empathy and helping people feel supported has always been at the heart of what I do.

SOMA Care Services is built around kindness, dignity, reliability and absolutely no judgement. Because sometimes you don’t need another professional telling you what you should be doing — you just need someone kind to come alongside you and help.
