The funding of care costs is a topic of discussion not limited to those who are in receipt of care and support or on the brink of entering a care home.

The cost of care in the UK exceeds inflation year on year and with the ever-changing legislative strategy on how the cost of care will be funded it is understandable that this topic is high priority for a large proportion of society.

Sadly, it is not unusual for the complex care fee rules to be incorrectly applied by the institutions responsible for their administration. There are many circumstances in which care costs can be secured and overpayments recovered.

  • Means tested and non means tested benefits
  • Entitlement to local authority funding
