ASC Neighbourhoods Service works alongside adults who have care and support needs in order to support them to live healthy and independent lives within their communities.

We do this by working in a strengths-based way, focusing on ‘What Matters’ to people, and by promoting independence and wellbeing. We work closely with other professionals, informal carers and family members to ensure a holistic approach.

We support people to live a healthy and independent life, This may include:

• Providing information and advice about how individuals can support themselves to stay well.
• Connecting individuals into services that are available in their local community.
• Exploring short-term support options to help individuals regain their strength, confidence, and independence for the long-term. This may involve specialist equipment or adaptations to the home environment.

If longer-term support is required, we will speak to individuals about what that could look like. As part of this, we will also explain how the funding and charges for services work.
