Paying for care, support and activities

There's lots of free advice and support that can help you to live independently. Some Adult Social Care services are also free but you may be asked to contribute towards the cost of others.

Our approach to charging is explained in detail in our Charging policy for Adult Social Care but you will find most of what you need to know, explained simply, in our leaflet Paying for adult community care and support .

Find out more on the Paying for your Care page or, for independent advice, visit the REAL website.
