Disabled people - independence at home

What does it do?

Support is given to help people maintain tenancies and help people live independently in their own home.  Domiciliary care agencies and Outreach Services support people to live in their own homes across Bolton to help them maintain and develop their independence.
Support can also be provided to set up and manage a tenancy.  This includes help with money matters, filling in forms, claiming benefits and assisting with setting up your new home and  may also include accessing furniture, gas and electrical suppliers.

Who it is for?

What it costs:
