    Hi Kim, welcome to the community. I hope you find it useful.

    There's an interesting thread here about managing CP that you might find interesting, started by our wonderful champion @Noah: https://community.scope.org.uk/discussion/comment/77021

    If you have issues around your housing, we have a housing and independent living advisor who might be able to help @DebbieVoakes. You can ask her a question here:

    Hi Kim,

    Welcome to the community :)
    Sorry to hear that you're not managing the steps in and out of your house. You can request an assessment by an Occupational Therapist and they will assess you at home to see if there are any aids or adaptations that would make it easier for you to get in and out of the house.

    Let me know if you'd like to talk some more about this.

    Best wishes
    Debbie
