We provide a range of services for disabled people and carers and are working to make all our services as accessible as possible.


We are an equal opportunities employer and have been awarded the two ticks symbol for our commitment to employ disabled people.

Social care services include home help, aids and adaptions, community meals, Carelink, and day services. We provide support for adults and children with physical, sensory or learning disabilities.

Help is also available for carers including support networks, breaks and respite care.

A number of educational services are available for disabled children. Our libraries also provide a range of services for disabled users.

If you or a member of your family is disabled you may be entitled to council tax and housing benefit, grants for adapting your home or help with transport.

We aim to make our website accessible for disabled users and can provide information in alternative formats on request.
