Accessing adult social care support
We can support you if you:
- are aged 18 years or over
- have a physical disability, learning disability or mental health issue
We can support you if you are a carer for someone who fits the description above, even if they do not use Adult Social Care services.
We also support young people with a disability or mental health issue through the transition into adulthood. This means we work with education and children’s services.
We have a duty to assess young carers below the age of 18 years. This also requires us to work with children’s services.
Ways we can support you
Some of the things we can do to help include:
- giving you advice and information about support and services available to you
- assessing you for care
