Is your care privately funded, or do you accept social services funding?

We welcome individuals who fund their own care, as well as those whose care is funded through social services. Our team will be happy to discuss the different options available and help you understand how to access our services.

Can you offer advice about funding and financial support?

Yes! We understand that navigating care funding and benefits can sometimes feel overwhelming. Our experienced team can provide general guidance on potential funding options and benefits you may be entitled to, as well as signposting you to organisations that can offer further specialist advice.
