Welcome to Kernow Directory. Organisations supporting adults across Cornwall are continuing to add their details. If you are an organisation, please visit one of our directories and click “Add a listing.”
Our information, advice and guidance pages are co-produced with people who have lived experience and will continue to grow.
You might live with your family, or in a group home. If you need to think about a new home, there are lots of options. If you get support from Cornwall Council, we can help you choose the best place to live. You may be able to get money towards paying for your home from us. Talk to your care worker for more information. If you do not have a care worker, you can ask for an assessment.

If you do not get help from Cornwall Council, there are still lots of places you can live. These are some things you can think about:
MySafeHome – This is a scheme to help people with disabilities buy their own home
Advance Housing – homes where you have someone close by who can support you, if you need that
Homechoice Cornwall – for Housing Association homes, that you can rent
You might need things changing at home to help you move around safely. You can find out more about things to help you on our Accommodation and Housing page. It can tell you about:
Equipment you can use
Gadgets to keep you safe
