We know that access to the right support makes all the difference. Our friendly team will work with you to explore options that can support your independence and wellbeing.
Support for you
We know it can be tricky finding the right support, advice and services.
Knowing where to start, or what services are available isn’t always straightforward. That’s why we have a team that can help you to figure it out.Â
We provide a confidential information and advice service, empowering Disabled people with timely and accessible information.
Need a bit of guidance or have a quick question? We’re here to help. Or, if you need more in-depth advice or support we can connect you to longer-term help.
If you require more in-depth advice, we offer one-to-one support for Disabled people to help you achieve your individual goals. Â
Our advice and wellbeing service is here for anyone who identifies as Disabled due to a physical or sensory impairment, d/Deaf British Sign Language (BSL) users and those with hearing loss, learning disability, mental health condition, neurodivergence, or a long-term health condition.
It is available for anyone living or working in Devon and is finding it difficult to get the support or resources you need to live the life you want.
If you’re unsure what kind of help you might need, that’s okay – please get in touch and we’ll be happy to talk it through with you.
Our team of highly experienced advisers are friendly and approachable, and here to listen to any issues and questions you might have. We work closely with you to focus on what matters most and do our best to find practical solutions. This includes:
We can help answer questions and talk you through a wide range of topics connected with disability, including:
We can provide appointments by phone, video call, email or some face-to-face appointments.
We will carry out an initial assessment (approx. 1 hour) where we get to know you a bit better and understand what your needs are. You do not need to bring anything to this appointment, but we will need you to complete some consent forms. Together, we will agree what support you require.
Our team brings both professional expertise and lived experience of disability. That means we understand many of the challenges you may face – but we also recognise that your experiences are unique. Our role is to listen, understand, and support you in overcoming barriers so you can achieve your goals.
We are not a crisis service.
If you feel you might harm yourself or are in immediate danger, call 999.
