The Care Act 2014

The Care Act is a law about care and support for adults who need help.

The main goal of the Care Act is to help people to maximise their well-being, independence, and safety.

Well-being is about your quality of life and what makes you happy and healthy. We can help with this by listening to you about what you want to achieve and how you can achieve it.

The Care Act says that Local Authorities must make sure you are involved in conversations about what is important to you.

If you are unable to participate fully, we must look at the things that are stopping you and take steps to overcome these.
