Community Support
Support to get out and about, attend appointments and stay connected with your community.
What this is
Community support helps people get out of the home to access appointments, activities and local community life, with a carer alongside them.
Who might benefit

- Agreeing a plan covering frequency, destinations and any support needed
Your assessment
