Our detailed practice guidance sets out the legislation and case law that councils or health and social care trusts need to be aware of when assessing and meeting the needs of adults, families, or care leavers with no recourse to public funds. The guidance focuses on how social care and immigration legislation must be applied in practice and is an essential read for social workers and other practitioners who are working with this group. We also provide practical resources to assist organisations to implement best practice.
Our guidance is written by members of our expert staff team and is informed by the experiences and learning shared by our stakeholders across the UK, including councils, health and social care trusts, our Steering Group and local government associations. Our publications are freely available and are all listed on this web page.
