Dear C87

Thank you for your post regarding your partner and the difficulties he is having. I am sorry to learn that you feel he has not been assessed or offered aids that would assist him in maintaining his independence, and generally help in making life a little easier living with a chronic condition.

If I could please ask you to contact me at your convenience so that I can obtain some more information, I would be most grateful. I can be contacted either by email: marie.helebert@nhs.net or by telephone: 0121 424 0808.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards

Marie Helebert
