STEPS PLUS

|
The Senior Steps Plus Service is funded by Supporting People.
This is funding from the Government to ensure that vulnerable
people get access to appropriate support that helps them get
on with their lives. Supporting People’s job is to both
fund the contracts, and to ensure that we are working at a
high standard. Senior Steps Plus is reviewed annually by Supporting
People.
The funding from Supporting People means that our service
is free to all clients. There’s no means test, you don’t
have to be on a particular benefit. It’s free!
Building Blocks are very committed to getting our clients
involved in making the services better. So we want to hear
your comments about what we do, good and bad. We have plenty
of opportunities everybody to get more involved if you want
to!
