Clear Guidance, Without Making Promises We Cannot Make
The responsible public authority decides entitlement to personal assistance and the extent of the assistance. Apricot cannot guarantee a particular decision, number of hours or outcome.
Where a matter requires specific legal expertise, external specialist advice may be appropriate.
You don't need to understand everything before asking a question.
Tell us briefly where you are in the process and what you would like help understanding. We can help you organise the questions and identify possible next steps.
