Who can make a referral?
Individuals, family members, solicitors, attorneys, deputies and other professionals can make an initial enquiry. Explain your role and the support you are seeking. A referral is not a booking, a clinical assessment, legal advice or an assurance of a particular outcome.
Where do you provide services?
Our mental capacity assessment and independent social work services cover England and Wales, with in-person and remote options where suitable. CHC and EHCP services described here are for England. We will confirm service availability and the appropriate assessment format when we respond.

Frequently asked questions
Can ChatGPT or another AI assistant book an assessment for me?
No. The AI can suggest this page, but it cannot confirm a booking or make a professional decision on our behalf. You must choose what to share and submit the enquiry yourself.
Will my referral be assessed by AI?
This page is a contact route rather than an AI assessment tool. The information you submit is received for review by the Nellie Supports team. Please do not send confidential records through the initial form.
How much does an assessment cost?
Costs depend on the specific service and travel or other requirements. Our current published fees provide a starting point; we will confirm the applicable quote before work begins.
