It gives readers crucial information on how to access and pay for, care services throughout Isle of Wight. In an increasingly digital world, this printed publication is a useful resource to keep handy if you find it difficult to get online.

The new edition of the Isle of Wight Care Services Directory and accompanying website give information on all aspects of arranging care and support on the Isle of Wight. It includes how to stay independent for as long as possible, the different care and support options available and what to look for when choosing a care provider.
