Care Funding Advice

Our care funding advice lawyers appreciate that the process of accessing financial support can be complex and challenging. With extensive experience of the nuances involved, we can help you with the ins and outs of your application, helping to make a successful case on your behalf.

There are two main forms of care funding in the UK, and the team can support with either:

1. Care Act assessment – this is the general route taken when applying for care funding. Applicants’ care needs are assessed, followed by a financial assessment to determine the level of funding.
2. NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) – a specific type of funding available to adults who are assessed as having a primary health need. This is not means tested, but applicants must prove that their condition warrants the financial support.

Get in touch if you require advice in relation to either of these funding routes.
