Information Sheets

Social & Housing Services leaflets are now available as information sheets. These are similar to the old style leaflets except they are not pre-printed; they can be printed straight from this website.

There are three lists of information sheets available:

If it is easier you can still come to our offices, or ring and request a copy of any of the information sheets. However, you can print your own copies from your home computer or from any Bath & North East Somerset library.

When you look at the list of information sheets you’ll see there is a text version and a pdf (portable document format) version of each sheet. The text version is a web page and the pdf version is designed to be printed. We recommend you download and print from the pdf version if you would like a copy of the information to keep.

To view pdf files you will need Acrobat Reader. If you do not have this you can download one (copy onto your computer) for free from Adobe, click here to download the free plugin.

All information sheets can be made available in a range of languages, large print, Braille, on tape, electronic and accessible formats.  Contact the Information Officer on 01225 477983, Minicom 01225 477043 or email information_officer@bathnes.gov.uk
