Apply for care and support

By answering some quick questions about your current situation we can direct you towards information, advice and services that could help you to live independently and improve your wellbeing. This process will also involve a financial assessment for care services or major adaptations in non-council properties.

We can also tell you how likely you are to be eligible for care and support and whether or not you would have to pay for some or all of any support you may receive.

It is important that you give us accurate information about your financial and housing circumstances. The council routinely carries out checks to prevent fraud.

Before you start

• • This self assessment is for adults (over 18)
