Your support, your way: Managing life at home

Managing support at home often comes down to everyday decisions that help life feel familiar and balanced. It’s about who comes into your space, what kind of help feels most useful, and how that support fits naturally around your routines.

ilarna is a platform designed to make those choices simpler. It gives you practical tools to organise support in a way that feels personal and flexible, while keeping the practical details in one place.

What managing your own support looks like in practice

Choosing who supports you

You browse profiles of local, independent, self-employed ilarna Personal Assistants and choose the person who feels right for you.

That choice can be based on whatever matters most to you: shared interests, relevant experience, or simply a sense that they’ll be a comfortable and respectful presence in your home.

Agreeing what support looks like

You and your ilarna Personal Assistant agree visit times, tasks, and rates directly between you.

Some people start with help around the house or companionship for a local walk. Others focus on morning routines or practical support that helps the day run more smoothly. There are no pre-set packages. Arrangements are shaped around your life.

Making changes as needed

Life doesn’t stay the same from week to week. Appointments come up, plans change, or you might simply want to do something differently.

Because arrangements are agreed directly, it’s easy to adjust (whether that’s changing a visit time, adding an extra visit, or scaling things back).

Keeping things organised

The ilarna platform helps keep the practical side clear and simple.

Your schedule, secure payments, and optional visit notes can all be viewed in one place. This gives you (and your family, if you choose) visibility and reassurance, without getting in the way of your day-to-day relationship.

Support shaped by you

Managing your own support doesn’t mean doing everything yourself. It means staying in control of the decisions that affect your home, while working with a familiar person who respects your independence.

With ilarna, support remains direct, flexible, and transparent. It’s shaped by you, and built around the way you want to live at home.
