Still deciding?

- 2 Compare providers freely

Example only. The right arrangement depends on the participant’s goals, circumstances, funding where relevant, suitability, availability and what Bright Heart Co can confirm.
Good to know
Your choices, funding and availability
Your choices: Frequently Asked Questions
Tell the team what makes information easier to understand and what helps you feel comfortable participating in decisions.
You may prefer written information, more time, a chosen supporter or a different way of communicating. Ask about the options before agreeing to an arrangement. A participant’s preferences should remain visible throughout planning and review.
Understand your rights →Scope, funding and availability: Frequently Asked Questions
A service description does not confirm that the support is funded or available for a particular person.
The proposed support needs to fit the participant’s plan, the agreed service scope and the provider’s current capacity. Ask how charges, travel, scheduling and cancellations will be handled. Confirm the arrangement before booking or making a commitment.
