We provide adult social care services to approximately 4,100 people in Telford and Wrekin.
Our services benefit people who may be frail, have disabilities, neurodiverse conditions, have mental health issues or other medical conditions. We not only assist the people receiving care but also support their carers, helping them maintain independence, safety and well-being to lead fulfilling lives.
When people require adult social care services, we assess their specific care and support needs. We also look at their income, to determine their contribution towards the cost of care.
The amount people need to pay for their care varies. Some people are not required to pay anything, some people make a contribution while others are self-funders who cover the full cost of their care.
Currently approximately 1,900 people receive chargeable social care services.
We set out how much people need to contribute towards their social care in the Adult Social Care Charging Policies, based on national legislation, Care Act 2014.
