We give information and support adults in Newcastle who find day to day activities difficult. This could include community activities, cooking, washing, or caring for someone. We can talk to you to find out how you are managing at home. We can have a conversation with you to understand your situation. To find out what’s working well and where we can help. We can put you in touch with local services. If you need one, we can arrange a Needs Assessment, to find out if we can help you further. We can help you to:
- find out more about care and support
- get information in another language or format
- talk about any worries that you have about an adult in Newcastle
- report abuse or neglect of an adult
Contact us for a chat. We will listen to you. We want to understand what’s working well for you and where we can help.
