I need help regaining my independence

Reablement is a short and intensive service, which is designed to help people progress their recovery after illness or disability, by learning or re-learning the skills necessary for daily living, whist promoting maximum independence.

This service is generally provided for a very short period. Service users often meet their goals within the first 4 weeks, with an optional futher 2 weeks if their aims and goals are achievable.
