Contact the Let's Talk team (Adult Social Care)

Overview

The Let's Talk team make sure that everyone has access to information and advice which supports their wellbeing. This includes online information and telephone advice supported by trained Adult Social Care Advisors.

This means that information is up-to-date and tailored to the individual and their needs.

The aim is to support people and connect them to the support available in their communities and networks.

What happens when you contact the team

The team will take some details, answer queries where possible or arrange a convenient time for a more in-depth chat, to fully understand how best to help.

The team can then connect you to the right support available in the community to improve your independence and achieve the things that matter to you.

If you are a carer, you may be offered an appointment at Connected Caring who will be able to connect you with support available specifically for carers, as well as provide you with information on wider networks to help you to continue with your life in the way you wish to.
