The essential adult social care information session: understand your rights and what you are entitled to

Thu 21 May 2026 10:30 AM - 12:30 PM BST
Online, Teams.

This session is intended for individuals who draw on social care services, or who support a friend or family member who does. It is not suitable for professionals working in the sector.

This session is for general information and education purposes only. It does not constitute legal advice. If you need help with a specific situation, we recommend seeking independent legal advice from a qualified solicitor or adviser.

Are you confused by how adult social care works?

• Do you feel unsure about your social care support?

• Do you feel that you or a family member aren’t getting the right support, but you're not sure what to do?

• Are you struggling to understand what your legal rights are?

If any of these questions resonate with you, you're not alone - and this session is for you.

What this session offers

Join us for a practical information session designed to give you the essential knowledge you need to better understand and navigate the adult social care system.

You’ll get:

• Clear guidance on the four stages to secure social care

• Practical tips to help you get the support you’re entitled to

• Increased understanding on how the system works so you can feel more in control of your life

We will help you understand adult social care and enable you to get better support. 

What to expect from the session

This is an online webinar - your camera and microphone will be off.

The session is interactive, using polls and the chat . The trainer will guide you through how to take part—but there is no pressure to join in if you’d prefer to just listen. 

There will be a Q&A at the end where you can ask questions using the chat.

It will last two hours, including a short break.

The session will be recorded, but not the Q&A, so you can rewatch it later if you join late, leave early, or need to step away from your device.

Following the session, you will receive a link to the recording and a copy of the slides.
