In just 18 months, Anja Abaraou has built Companionship Services Ltd., helping older adults rediscover joy and
independence while giving carers regular respite breaks. With services that mirror what family would do if time allowed, transportation, light tasks, appointments, and shared experiences, her person centred approach is changing lives and relationships across the community.

Companionship Services Ltd. is a venture that is redefining how we think about ageing. Her mission is to ensure older adults
don’t just “get by” but rediscover joy, independence, and connection—before it’s too late.
The idea of precare, support offered before crisis, has already taken precedence in
Germany, Anja’s home country. Inspired by this model and driven by her passion for older people, she is bringing the same vision to the UK: preventative companionship that helps older adults thrive, reassures families, and gives carers regular respite breaks, transforming relationships along the way.
Unlike any other service, Companionship Services offers what families would do if
time allowed: safe transportation, light home tasks, booking and accompanying to
appointments, shared experiences, and joining communities. It’s not a one size fits all solution, but a personcentred approach that offers a new lease of life.

Her achievements have already been recognised: Winner of the Spelthorne
Business Plan Competition and runnerup in both Best New StartUp and Best
Social Impact at the Spelthorne Business Awards.
This is more than a business—it’s a movement for lasting change. Companionship
Services Ltd. is proving that dignity, joy, and independence are not luxuries in later
life, but essentials.
