Self-refer
- Online
- E-mail: enquiries@soarcommunity.org.uk
- Or ask your GP practice for a referral.
SOAR receives a high number of referrals, so it is likely there will be a waiting time of a few weeks before someone gets in touch.
If you require a greater package of support for a whole range of support needs such as: housing, benefits, debt, immigration, social isolation, mental health, etc., it is advised that you seek this via your GP Practice or self-refer to a Community Support Worker. A community support worker can give you support and advice on almost anything non-medical, as long as you are not already receiving social care.
