Help – Well Aware

Tips for using the Quick Search bar:

To get the most out of keyword searches, there are several different ways that you can enter your search criteria. Try to keep your search simple. A couple of words will usually do.

For example, social club, rather than evening social club for adults on a Monday.

Tips for using the Needs and Circumstances search function:

If you’re not sure exactly what you’re looking for, click on the ‘I’m looking for services relating to..’ needs and circumstances search function on the left hand side of the site and find the option that most matches what you think you might be interested in or what your problem is.

For example, if you’re looking for care at home for yourself or someone else, click the option under ‘Needs’ > Care at Home. You can then choose what area of Bristol or South Glos you would like to search in by clicking on the ‘In and Around‘ drop down menu and choosing your desired area. This will bring up a very broad list of all the organisations on Well Aware that might be able to help with anything related to your needs, circumstances and location.

If you change your mind about a criteria you’ve selected, just click on it again to remove it from your search and click APPLY to update the results.
