About us

At Apollo Home Healthcare, we provide high-quality, person-centred care to people in the comfort of their own homes. Every individual we support has unique needs – we tailor every care package to them, building a compassionate and skilled team around their requirements.

Meet Our Clients

We’re currently supporting adult and child clients in Wigan and surrounding areas and are looking for compassionate, dedicated individuals to deliver high-quality, person-centred care tailored to their needs.
