If you’re finding it harder to do the things you used to, perhaps after a setback or fall, and you need a bit of extra help at home, the Commonwealth Home Support Programme is for you. It offers a range of services to help you live independently, including help with domestic tasks like cleaning, making a meal, getting to the shops or even changing a lightbulb..[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”32″ down=”0″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
