>West Sussex County Council has recently changed its eligibility criteria for adult social care. Those with ‘moderate’ needs will lose all support. 

A parent carer and the Aldingbourne Trust have written a guide to help people understand the system and be prepared for the reassessments.

Although the guide has been written for West Sussex, the information is likely to apply across the country.  People  likely to be affected by cuts in funding will need support to get ready for re-assessments and collect evidence in good time.
