In these times of government cuts to public services in the UK many of us will find ourselves under increasing pressure to locate support for ourselves, our families, friends and neighbours. Some of us will need the help of others to get us on track. Even if you don’t need help yourself, you probably know some one who does.We hope some of the sites here will be helpful to you and yours. Like much of this site, this page is another work in progress so please send links you think will be helpful. We are especially interested in support services that function well in your local area. URL s sent in by you will be marked yellow. As the list grows related sites will be placed in specific directories.
