jaja said:Thank you for your replies. They are very useful.I am very surprised by some of the things that a person can receive help with. i thought it was only personal care ie bathing and reheating ready meals. The problem is that even with help I couldn't manage bathing every day and I have numerous allergies so ready meals don't work for me which is what I am offered where I live.I struggle with a lot of the things listed and have been paying for things like cleaning etc.I do have a couple of further questions which I am sure you can answer but need a little time to think about how to word them given we are an open forum.Kindest regardsJ
