Coronavirus

Owing to the current situation, our assessment services across the country will be limited for the time being. Please contact the centre closest to you for advice and guidance. You can find your nearest centre here by popping in your postcode or using the map to locate your nearest centre. Staff will be happy to help you. Many of our centre staff are undertaking work in their local community to support the national effort to assist in any way they can, following government guidelines to protect the safety of all individuals.
