Social Care - Information and Factsheets
As we get older more and more of us need support to go about our daily lives – not just so we can stay in our homes for longer, but also so we can take part in our communities and live our lives to the full. If you have a disability, you may need support with your day to day routine at home, and Local Authorities have a major part to play in providing it through social care.
