Sometimes as we get older it becomes difficult to manage with all the paperwork required in running a home, or in undertaking all the domestic chores needed.  Or perhaps you would like help with budgeting or accessing community services? 
 
If you are over the age of 60, then Eastbourne Homes has a new service which could benefit you by enabling you the support required to live independantly in your home.
 
We can help you with:
  • Understanding the terms of your tenancy, rights and responsibilities; guidance on remaining safe in your home
  • Assistance with understanding rent and council tax payments
  • Assistance with making council tax and housing benefit claims
  • Basic budgeting, money management and issues around debt
  • General correspondence and help opening bank accounts
  • Support to access community activities and services
  • Assistance with accessing other services e.g. dentist, GP, health service, life skills, day centres and domestic help
 
These are just a few examples of the support that we can provide.  If you feel the service may be of benefit to you then in the first instance please contact us at:
 
 Floating Support Team
 Eastbourne Homes Ltd
 3rd floor, 1 Grove Road
 Eastbourne
 BN21 4UH
 
 Telephone: 01323 415913/415331
 
We will then arrange a visit to your home to complete an individual support plan, with your input, that forms the assessment of your needs and enables us to tailor the service to suit you.
