Support for adults and older people panel

Physical disability and long term conditions

Living with a physical disability or a long‑term health condition can affect everyday life in different ways.

Day opportunities and community support

Social groups, day services and community activities that help people stay active, connected and supported.

Dementia and memory support

Dementia affects everyone differently, and support is available at every stage - from early memory concerns to more advanced care needs.

Care homes and housing options

Care homes can be a suitable option for people whose needs mean that living at home is no longer practical, even with support.

Paying for care and free personal care

This section explains how care is funded in Scotland, what support may be available, and what you may be asked to contribute towards the cost of your care.

Power of Attorney and future planning

Planning ahead can help make sure your wishes are known and respected if you become unable to make decisions for yourself in the future.

Self‑Directed Support

Self‑Directed Support (SDS) gives people more choice and control over how their care and support is arranged.

Adult support and protection

We work with the NHS, Police, private and voluntary sector, to ensure adults at risk in Perth and Kinross are protected from harm.
