If you’re having difficulty accessing health and social care services, we can advise you on the next steps you can take to access the care you need.
You’ll need to be eligible for legal aid, so please check here. If you are eligible, our expert adviser can help you find your way around the health and social care system.
We can also help you question a decision you might think is wrong, or advise you if you’re helping to arrange care for a relative or friend.
If you need advice, please check if we can help.
You can also get in touch using our contact form or by phoning 020 8767 2777. Please note that our phone lines are very busy at the moment, and you may find it quicker to use our advice checker if you can.
