Welcome to our Support Services Directory for people who hold a Personal Health Budget (PHB).
The Directory will allow PHB Holders and their representatives to search for PHB Support Services. The PHB Support Services Directory includes several providers who can deliver PHB Support Services. The providers can work with all ages and service groups, in the North Central London area.
Solo Support Services
We provide a range of services, including those fully regulated by the CQC, for individuals with a budget for care and support and who need assistance to live independently at home.
The support we give depends on what you need and want. We can help you recruit PAs to provide 24-hour care and support, seven days a week, if you have complex needs. We can help you recruit one PA to support you for just a few hours a week if you need help with specific tasks and we can provide everything in between! We work with you to provide a service that is tailor-made to you.
