Supporting you to live your best life
Adult Social Care aims to help people stay independent, safe and well so they can live the lives they want. This includes people who are frail or have physical or learning disabilities, mental health needs or issues with substance misuse, and any carers who look after them. Visit our Adult social care and support webpages for all the information about the care and support available in Surrey.
See our care and support for adults' section for sources of care and support information in Surrey.
Better planning, better lives
It's never too early to start planning for your future or helping your loved ones to plan. We have partnered with Age UK Surrey to help you plan ahead and know what your care and support options are and what costs are involved. Take a look at the Surrey Age UK website which can help you, or someone you know, make informed decisions and help you to be more prepared.

Looking after someone who needs help ?
If you look after someone who is ill, frail or disabled you're likely to be regarded as a carer. But what would happen if you suddenly weren't available? Apply for a free Surrey Carers Card, make a plan and find other help and advice, including advice about financial support you may be entitled to. Details on the Surrey County Council Carers web pages.
Safeguarding adults
Some people have care and support needs which make it difficult for them to protect themselves from abuse and neglect. This could include people with disabilities, long-term conditions, mental health needs or those who are frail and need extra support to live independently.
If you are at risk of abuse or neglect, or you suspect someone else is, please report it now. Visit the Safeguarding adults - report abuse or neglect web pages.
Your voice matters
We also want to hear from more local people about what would help them to live safe, healthy and fulfilling lives, to help improve support provided in our communities. Find out more on our Your voice matters to Adult Social Care webpage.
