  • Offer you practical support and advice as you set up and start living your life with care support.
  • Help you to speak up about what matters to you, and challenge decisions about SDS when needed.
  • Support you to think about your responsibilities and to set up as an employer of your own personal assistants when you choose a direct payment.
  • Put you in touch with other organisations that might be of interest and help to you.
  • Help you think about alternatives and additions to living life with SDS.
