Bringing about a brighter social care future in Wokingham Borough

Everyone should have the support, resources and opportunities to live in a place they call home, with the people and things that they love, in communities where we look out for one another, doing the things that matter most.

Sometimes, we or the people we care about, may need help to achieve this due to a health condition or disability. This is the role of social care.
