Direct payments are payments made by the Council to people who would usually receive a service from social services. They assist people who want to manage their own support to improve their quality of life. They promote independence, social inclusion and enhance self-esteem by enabling people to live in their own homes, be fully involved in family and community life and to participate actively in work, education and leisure opportunities.
The Council recognises that the successful use of direct payments relies on access to appropriate support.
