Companiions has been selected for the Impact Fifty Award
Companiions
Companiions is a technology-enabled service that provides a simple and trusted way for people to arrange in-person, on-demand support and companionship for themselves or a loved one. It is staggering to learn that, here, in the UK there are 17 million people who currently juggle their work with every-day responsibilities such as childcare and support to elder or unwell relatives. This inevitably results in absenteeism and attrition, costing UK businesses £18 billion a year.
Companiions ease this added burden of responsibility and offers peace of mind to so many of those that are struggling and feeling overstretched. It enables them to remain independent, productive, and, crucially, stay at work. Companiions has established a new category of essential support services whilst also solving important social challenges like gender inequality, loneliness, isolation & mental health. Launched fully at the start of 2022, Companiions has already gained almost 10,000 customers and is now set to become the world's largest companionship marketplace.

Why are you personally connected to the company's mission?
Impact Fifty is a movement that selects only the highest standard careers and companies that genuinely make an impact on important causes. We believe in finding meaning and impact within your career and we’re committed to discovering companies that embody those ideals. That's why we are proud to announce that Companiions has been selected for the Impact Fifty Award, recognising the top 50 most impactful companies to work for.
Navigating your career can be a minefield that lacks clarity. We set out to identify the fifty companies that stand out as beacons of great companies that prioritise their people and mission.
We selected Companiions based on how all employees, from top to bottom, feel about their mission of making companionship easier, safer, and more human, their sense of personal contribution to that mission, and their optimism about the progress being made towards Companiions' vision.
If you're looking for a meaningful career that is packed with purpose and impact, and Companions' mission to make companionship easier inspires you, we highly recommend Companiions as a company that truly cares about its mission and its people.
