Hi , I am just wondering if someone has got any experience of transferring severely disable person ( paralysed after stroke + aphasia) from another country to U.K. ? I have not clue even what support could be provided. Even if the transfer would be successful the flat to which the person could be relocated is on second floor in tiny block with no lift access at all . Any ideas or advices of support, suggestions are very welcome.

Hello @iza I'm afraid this is an area in which I have no experience, so I can't advise you directly. To help our members share their thoughts, I'm moving your post over into our housing, transport and independent living category, and marking it as unanswered.
I'll look into whether there's any useful resources to share with you, but if there's anything else we can help with, please do say.

You don't specify in your post whether the person who needs moving is a UK/Irish passport holder or not.
If they aren't a UK/Irish passport holder (so are covered by the Common Travel Area), you need to know it's illegal in the UK to give immigration advice if you're not a qualified legal specialist.
You need to seek legal advice from a professional, such as a solicitor. that's out of the scope of this forum.

Hi Alex_Scope & Stellar, thank you very much about replay. I do not give details here because it is my private life situation. It is all about my own mum who is paralysed after stroke which happened 6 years ago. My mum was married to British and I am British citizen so I didn't give any deepest details because I do not need legal aids. I was more looking towards life experience of somebody who been in similar situation. Thank you
