Welcome

Welcome to the Wiltshire Adult Care and Support Guide 2022. This Guide provides:

• Details of a range of services to enable you, and anyone you know or care for, to make informed decisions about your care and support

• Clear, easy-to-use information that will help you to think about your options and make the right choices

We want to make this Guide simple, clear and easy to understand to enable you to make informed decisions.

Residents in Wiltshire have told us they want to be able to live safely and independently in their own homes for as long as they can and to enjoy the best possible quality of life. This Guide provides details of a range of services to enable you, and anyone you know or care for, to live well.

Whether you are paying for services yourself, or receiving support from the council, we know that making decisions about social care can be daunting. The uncertainties and concerns that have arisen from COVID-19 mean that clear information has never been so important.

In addition to the Wiltshire Adult Care and Support Guide, you can find information about care and support in Wiltshire at: https://adults.wiltshire.gov.uk/ This website holds information about adult social care in Wiltshire and services in the community to support your health and wellbeing.
