Your Senior Life Sorted

Meet Cathy – Your Senior Life Concierge

I’m Cathy, an East Coast local with a knack for sorting life’s details and a passion for helping seniors and their families in St Helens. I’ve worn many hats—business owner, event manager, personal assistant, and mum to five kids. Running my own business taught me how to multitask, while years as an event manager sharpened my skills in making things happen smoothly. As a personal assistant, I mastered anticipating needs, and raising five children gave me a crash course in patience, problem-solving, and care!
But it was helping my Mum into a more supported environment that inspired 1st 4 Seniors—a concierge service bringing practical, thoughtful support to St Helens, whenever you need it.

I’m not here to replace clinical care or the great support government programs provide—I’m here to go over and above, filling the gaps with practical, hands-on help. Whether it’s a senior staying independent with a ride to the shops, or a family needing a hand during a big change, I’ve got you covered. My goal? Help seniors in St Helens live life their way, at home, while giving families peace of mind. With my blend of business savvy, organisational wizardry, and a mother’s heart, I’m ready to make your day easier. I’m all about flexibility—these ideas are just a starting point, and I’d love to tailor a solution just for you. Let’s chat about what you need!
