Paying for your care and support

Contributing to your care and support 

If you qualify for support, we'll carry out a financial assessment to decide whether or not you have enough money to pay towards what you need. How much you pay depends on your income and outgoings. We'll also look at the amount of savings you have. 

Visit the paying for care and support section of our website for further information.  

Personal budgets 

If you meet the eligibility criteria, we will provide you with a personal budget and discuss with you how you can use this to meet your needs via a range of options, including direct payments. 

This will help you to better understand the likely costs of your care and support and your contribution. This gives you choice and control over the support you get. 

You can find out more on the personal budgets page.
