THE ACCOMPANYING HEART
You don't have to figure this out alone.
Practical tools, gentle guidance and thoughtful support for the everyday realities of caring for someone you love through serious illness and end-of-life care.
Whether you're trying to keep track of medications and appointments, make difficult decisions, find the right questions to ask, or simply work out how to keep going yourself, you'll find support here for both the practical and the human side of caregiving.
Support for the Whole Caregiving Journey
Support the Heart
Caregiving asks a lot of the heart. Find gentle support for the emotions, uncertainty and difficult days that come with caring for someone you love.
Support the Hands
Caregiving comes with countless practical tasks. Find simple tools to help organise medications, appointments, questions, information and the details that are easy to lose track of.
Support the Journey
Caregiving changes as circumstances change. Find thoughtful guidance to help you understand what may come next, prepare for difficult conversations and move forward one step at a time.
Support for wherever you are in the journey
The Accompanying Heart Support Hub is a growing collection of practical tools, thoughtful guidance and compassionate resources for caregiving — from the first days of uncertainty, through the practical realities of care, and into the life that follows.
A little practical support, right when you need it
A few simple pages can make the practical side of caregiving feel a little more manageable. The free Caregiver Starter Pack gives you six useful tools to help organise important information, prepare for appointments and remember your own needs too.
The Accompanying Heart
Navigating End-of-Life Care Without Losing Yourself
Practical enough to help. Human enough to understand.
The Accompanying Heart was written for the person making the calls, remembering the medications, asking the difficult questions and trying to hold everything together. It offers practical guidance alongside compassionate support for the emotional realities of caring for someone you love.
You can care deeply for someone else without forgetting that you need care too.
Why The Accompanying Heart exists
The Accompanying Heart grew from lived experience — from knowing how quickly caring for someone you love can become a world of appointments, decisions, uncertainty and responsibility.
So much attention understandably centres on the person who is ill. But somewhere alongside them is often someone trying to keep everything together, while quietly carrying a great deal themselves.
The Support Hub was created with that person in mind: a place for practical tools, thoughtful guidance and gentle support through the realities of caregiving.
"The person doing the caring matters too.”
— Sonelle Buys
