Take Control
If you need support to help you to maintain your independence and live your life the way that you want to, and you are eligible for support from social services, you can take charge of your own care by receiving Direct Payments.
What are Direct Payments?
Direct Payments give you more choice and control over the support services you need. Instead of arranging your support services for you, Social Services will give you the money they would normally spend on your care so that you can buy the support that you want.
