Direct Payments and Personal Budgets
Direct Payments are payments made to people who need support (following a community care assessment), and Personal Budgets (following a health professionals assessment), enabling individuals to buy their own care or support services.
Services can include access to services (such as the gym), with managing activities of daily living, and with living with mental health conditions such as anxiety or obsessional difficulties. Additionally we support individuals in the management of their homes to help maintain their tenancies.
Private Contracts
For clients who want to do more than their Direct Payments package will fund, or who cannot obtain statutory funding for support, we can make separate arrangements for private payment for services.
These services can include:
-
One to One support
-
Telephone Support
