Care Packages
How Our Care Package Personalisation Works
Every Limitless traveller benefits from a personalised care package. How does that work in practice? Well, we start by giving you a call and discussing your specific needs. This allows us to establish which of our care packages is best suited to your particular circumstances. Then, we tailor your package to reflect the way you want to enjoy your holiday.
At Limitless, we recognise that all of our travellers are different and have distinct needs and preferences. Some people like to dress themselves, while others prefer a little help. Some want help showering and some are happy to do it alone. Often, travellers are more than capable of performing certain tasks but lack confidence when attempting others. It’s different for everyone.
By personalising your care package, we’re able to create a detailed support plan that works for you. There are no extra charges for personalisation, it’s just a part of the Limitless service. If you have any questions regarding our care packages, please don’t hesitate to give one of our Limitless Travel Advisors a call.
Buddy
For many people, travelling with a disability is a nerve-wracking experience. The Limitless Buddy Package is designed to help physically independent travellers who don’t require personal care but would like a little emotional support, encouragement and company. If you receive support at home, reside in a supported living environment or are worried about travelling, this is a great package for you.
Pusher
Our Pusher Package is ideal if you need a little help propelling your wheelchair when you’re on holiday. Whether you’re somewhat unsteady on your feet and prefer the comfort of a chair or you just want to sit back and enjoy your trip without the worry of propelling yourself, our team will help you get wherever you want to go.
Medication
At home, many Limitless travellers are supported in taking their medication. On our tours, the Care Team can step up and help with that. We ask that all travellers submit their medication lists in advance. This ensures we can tailor your care package to your prescription instructions and that you get the assistance you need, when you need it.

Personal Care - One-to-One Package
As with all our care plans, the Personal Care One-to-One Package is personalised, ensuring you receive the support you need from the moment you start your holiday. With this package, you’ll be assisted by a fully qualified member of the Limitless Care Team in both the morning and evening. They’ll also be on-hand to help you with toileting during the day. Our One-to-One Standard Care Package is an excellent option if:
● You need assistance getting in and out of bed in the morning
● You need support when getting ready for the day
● You require some support with toileting or have continence needs
● You currently receive some one-to-one support at home
Personal Care - Two-to-One Package
With our Personal Care Two-to-One Package, you’ll be supported by two members of the Limitless Care Team in the morning and evening, as well as receiving assistance with toileting during the day. This enables us to provide all the support included in the One-to-One Package, as well as help that requires the presence of two carers, such as hoisting when transferring to and from a seat or bed. Our Two-to-One Care Package is perfect if:
● You need to be hoisted for some transfers
● You are unable to transfer without the help of a carer
● You receive two-to-one care and support at home
One-to-One All Day Care - Standard Package
Our One-to-One All-Day Standard Package expands on the Personal Care Package by ensuring you’re accompanied by a Limitless carer throughout the day. As well as receiving assistance in the morning and evening, you’ll have the support of a carer when we head out on excursions or spend time at the hotel. This makes it the ideal option if you desire additional help and feel as though you would benefit from the presence of a carer to help manually push your wheelchair and provide individual assistance while out and about.
One-to-One All Day Care - Extra Package
The One-to-One All-Day Care Extra Package builds on the One-to-One All-Day Care Standard Package by ensuring there are two carers on-hand to provide support whenever it’s necessary. You’ll still receive one-to-one assistance with personal care and manual wheelchair pushing throughout the day, just as you would with the Standard Package. However, the additional pair of hands ensure you also receive help with hoisting when you transfer to or from a seat or bed.
All of the coaches we use benefit from:
Hydraulic lift access and flat floor access to seats
Our coaches are equipped with hydraulic lifts that guarantee easy access if you’re travelling in a wheelchair or suffer from mobility impairments. There are also no steps inside the coach, ensuring flat-floor access to all seats and the onboard toilet.
Comfortable and spacious seating
Whether you’ve got a short or a long journey ahead of you, we recognise that your comfort is of the utmost importance. Consequently, our coaches all feature spacious seating and a luxurious finish. We want your holiday to start the moment you’re picked up, so nothing less than the best will do.
Up to six secure wheelchair spaces on every coach
If you don’t want to transfer to a standard seat and would prefer to remain in your wheelchair for the duration of the journey, you’re welcome to do so. Our coaches feature up to six wheelchair-dedicated spaces where your chair can be safely secured in place.
Large hold area to store equipment
On your Limitless holiday, you may travel with extra equipment or a significant amount of luggage. Our large hold area is big enough to store any and all equipment you may need to bring.
Experienced drivers with disability awareness training
Not only are our drivers experienced on the road, but they’ve also been through disability awareness training. This ensures they’ve got a good idea of the challenges you face and how they can best look after you.
They’re friendly, helpful, chatty and very much part of the Limitless family. You’ll have the same driver throughout your holiday, so you’re sure to get to know them as you travel the UK together.
A comprehensive cleaning for every tour
All of our coaches are thoroughly cleaned before and after every tour to ensure they’re in perfect condition and that you’re able to travel with total peace of mind.
