“My hands don’t work well enough to manage buttons and zips. Is there someone who could help me get dressed at home?”
Yes — there are people who can come to your home and help you get dressed. The service is often called personal care at home or domiciliary care\.

They can also help with other everyday tasks, depending on the care you need. Since you're in the Chigwell area of England, there are a few ways to arrange this, including through your local council or a private home-care agency. …
