Compass: Connecting Care in Cumbria.
Compass is a ground-breaking initiative linking the Third Sector, Social Care, and Health to deliver a connected and holistic service for the residents of Cumbria.
Compass Helpline & Assessment
Our support services are completely free of charge and confidential.
The Compass Helpline serves as a one-stop shop for independent information and advice for anyone in Cumbria aged 50 and over. If more support is needed, we can arrange a home visit from one of our Case Workers, who will provide face-to-face assistance and complete a Compass Assessment—a comprehensive evaluation of needs. Our staff are here to help improve health and wellbeing while supporting people to maintain their independence.
Getting support is simple. After an initial conversation with our helpline, one of our trained team members will meet with you (and your family, if you wish) to talk through all the factors affecting your quality of life, health, and happiness.
Together with your dedicated Case Officer, you can then develop a personalised plan to address the challenges you're facing and explore practical solutions.
Using CompasseHub, we can better identify the areas of your life—or that of a loved one—that may benefit from support. This allows us to connect you with local services and organisations tailored to your needs.

Building Resilience
We're proud to be taking part in Age UK's Building Resilience project, supported by M&G Investments, giving in-depth information and advice to local older people about issues that really matter to them. This project has provided funding support for the CompasseHub, helping us to use the platform to provide the support that local older people need, as well as to identify the most-needed changes to help them enjoy their later life more.
