Adult social care

Getting help from adult social care

To get help from us you must meet the eligibility criteria and request a needs assessment. If you're not eligible, we can still tell you about other services, and ways that you might find funding to pay for them.

Am I eligible for care services?

To get social care from us you must have needs which are eligible for support based on the Care Act eligibility criteria.

Request a needs assessment

Before we can offer you care and support services we will need to find out more about your circumstances.
