Hi there,
Im Nicky007 & I’m new to this. I have a question where can I get an assessment within my home for any updated divices that I may need? I did have an assessment years ago by HCC but I’ve emailed & called them recently but to no avail - can anyone help? Tia

Hi and welcome, you need to ask your local council to send an OT (occupational therapist) to see you and assess your current needs. Hope that helps is there anything else we can help with ?

Hi @Nicky007, you can refer yourself for a needs assessment. This will allow you to access support and have an equipment review.
