Home care service fulfils clients' dreams with European cruise adventure
A Midlands-based home care service supported its clients on an unforgettable European adventure – purchasing mobility aids to ensure the journey was accessible and comfortable for all.
New Age Care, whose HQ is in Leamington Spa, supported clients on a European adventure through Belgium, Germany, Austria, Slovakia, and Hungary before boarding the River Danube Cruise. The service purchased and transported a foldable wheelchair, walking stick and suction grab handles for bathrooms to allow clients to enjoy the voyage despite some mobility limitations.
Roger Wagstaff, 82, one of the clients on the trip, said: “It was a great experience with top-class support. I would not have been able to manage my two wishes of travelling on the Eurostar and the River Danube without New Age Care. I was able to see things that I haven’t been doing for the past twenty years.”
The journey began with a Eurostar ride from London to Brussels and continued to Cologne, Germany for its famed Gothic Cathedral. The adventure included guided tours, gourmet dinners, scenic rail journeys, and a river cruise. Guests explored Austria's Lake District, and visited the famed Melk Abbey, before sampling local wines in Dürnstein.


Highlights included a classical performance in Vienna and breathtaking views along the Danube River. The journey concluded in Budapest with iconic landmarks such as the Parliament Building, Buda Castle, and Fisherman’s Bastion.
Throughout, New Age Care ensured clients had personalised assistance, enabling them to create lasting memories of Europe’s rich culture and history.
Sam Whittaker, CEO and Founder of New Age Care said, “We believe that age or health challenges should never be a barrier to experiencing the world.
