Social Care is support for children, young people, and adults who need help with daily living to maintain their independence and well-being. It includes information and advice, practical assistance, help with household chores and finances, and emotional or social support to prevent isolation. You can ask your local council for a free needs assessment to see what support you might be able to get.
This support is provided in various settings, such as the person's own home or community centers, and can be delivered by local authorities, private organizations, charities, family, and friends.
