About Ageless CompanionS

Ageless Companions was founded in 2019 by Marlyn Baxter, a dedicated professional with over 22 years of experience in health and social care. Marlyn’s passion for supporting others began early. After earning an HND in Information and Office Management, she worked in America with individuals with disabilities before returning to Scotland. She then spent over two decades in Fife Health and Social Care Partnership, helping people through various roles, including Criminal Justice Worker and Self-Directed Support Officer.

When her role was outsourced, she lost the daily connection with service users that had made her work so fulfilling. Determined to make a difference, she used her expertise to create a service that puts people first. Marlyn   recognised how many individuals across Fife were experiencing loneliness and isolation—many had carers, but not enough time for meaningful conversation, laughter, or companionship.  

Ageless Companions was created to change that, providing personalised companionship services that reduce isolation and provide support for unpaid carers. 

The company has grown rapidly:

✔ 158 dedicated staff
✔ 302 individuals supported across homes, sheltered housing, and care facilities
✔ Countless lives enriched through caring companions, friendship and support

Some clients have busy families. Others simply need another friendly face in their week. Whether it's a social outing, a chat over tea, or just a reassuring presence, Ageless Companions offers trusted  and caring companionship in Fife that ensures no one feels alone. 

A client once said having a companion was better than any medication. As Marlyn puts it: "If that's not job satisfaction, I don't know what is!"
