Services for older people

Our service operates throughout Hambleton District offering support to older and vulnerable people. If you require support and do not live within the district we can put you in touch with an appropriate service in your area.

The service is designed to help people to remain in their own home, maintaining their independence with greater confidence and security. It is available to any vulnerable person living in the Hambleton District.

The service is delivered by teams of staff located across the district. Each support worker has a portfolio of clients and delivers a service based upon an individual needs assessment and support plan. It is mainly delivered during office hours although support workers are available in the evenings and at weekends for pre-arranged visits. If you claim housing or council tax benefit or are on a limited income you may be able to receive the service free of charge.

The service is supported by our 24 hour call centre who will answer your lifeline calls and arrange help.
