You may be entitled to social care funding support, subject to your financial circumstances. For more details contact your local social services who can advise you further.
If you have already been assessed by your local council as needing social services support, you are likely to be allocated a Personal Budget, this can be paid in the form of Direct Payments, Individual Service Funds (ISFs), or Individual Budgets.
You may come across many other phrases for these but fundamentally they all mean the same important thing that you have more choice and control over the care and support you receive.
Often, the Local Authority does not provide funding to cover everything that you wish to include in your care plan and only covers the basic essentials. You may wish to top up your care plan and pay for some extras yourself. It is possible to do this and many of our customers do.
