How to find the right support<\/h2>\r\n

Always check first what you can do yourself. For example, with help from family, friends or neighbours. Sometimes there are also solutions you can make use of yourself, such as help from your GP or other healthcare services.<\/p>\n

You can also find plenty of help and support right in your own neighbourhood. On the Buurtwijzer website, you\u2019ll find activities, practical help and initiatives in Apeldoorn.<\/p>\n

Go to the Neighbourhood Guide<\/a><\/p>\n

Samen055 is here to help you<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re unable to sort things out yourself, can\u2019t find a suitable solution on the Buurtwijzer, or aren\u2019t quite sure what you need, please get in touch with Samen055. A member of staff at Samen055 will arrange an appointment with you. Together, you\u2019ll look at what\u2019s needed and what solutions are available. If support under the Wmo is required, the local authority will assess your application.<\/p>\n
