Social care

Support for everyone

There are services which everyone can use. These are known as universal services.

Your GP, your child's school, or early years setting, such as a nursery or preschool, will be able to direct you to services that can support you.

We are committed to ensuring children with disabilities or sensory impairments can access positive experiences and families can get the support they need within universal provision.

The majority of children in Lincolnshire who require services will receive them through universal provision within their local community. The same should be true of any child with a disability.

Universal provision, for example, sports clubs, youth clubs, libraries and children’s centres are really important in ensuring children and young people with disabilities have fun and enjoy themselves with friends, just like all children and young people.
