Our story
Why I'm exploring Folded.
My nearly 90-year-old mother-in-law lives independently in her own home. She's determined to stay there and, if we're honest, she has no interest in anyone suggesting otherwise.
Like many families, we've found ourselves in the middle ground. She's doing well, but some everyday jobs are becoming harder than they used to be. Not enough to need care. Enough to create the occasional worry.
At the same time, through my work with home care organisations, I've seen how much support exists around personal care, medication and wellbeing, while practical household tasks often fall outside that support. Laundry is one of them.
That's why I'm exploring Folded. Not as a laundry business, but as a simple way to help people stay independent for longer and help families worry a little less.
