Help from Adult Social Care

Shared Lives matches you with a carer that you live with. Find out how to apply to get a Shared Lives carer, or how to apply to be one.

Keeping people safe in a hospital or care home, can sometimes involve them being restricted or restrained. This is known as being deprived of your liberty.

When you plan your care and support for now or the future, it may help to speak to a qualified Independent Financial Adviser.

The cost of a care home depends on the care provider, the type of care you need and how much money you have.

You can still get help to pay for a care home if you own a property.

Our aim is to support health and independence, so you can live in your home for as long as possible. We also aim to give everybody equal opportunities.

Support at home from a carer or personal assistant is known as home care. Support from other places like charities and support groups is known as community support.

We'd like to hear from you if you're happy or unhappy with an Adult Social Care service.
