Paying for Care

There are a number of options available for paying for care. To arrange a free initial discussion at your home, workplace or our offices contact us today.

Own Income/Self-funding

You may receive sufficient income from pensions and existing investments or rental income from your home to pay for your care.

Family Contribution

In some cases your family will be able to help cover the cost for you.

Savings Accounts

This includes deposit accounts, Cash ISA’s and National Savings. Low risk and as a result you will have to hope the interest generated is sufficient and your capital does not get eroded too quickly.

The main benefit of a Long Term Care Plan is that is can provide you with peace of mind and reassurance or continued payments for life. This certainty must be balanced against the risk of premature death and the person in care dies early, the capital used to purchase the annuity may not be returned in part or at all.

“Paul has a very friendly approachable personality. He put us at ease right away and was very good at helping us understand things we found were way over our head He did not make us feel uncomfortable and awkward as we had with our previous adviser. He explained things in a simple manner which we gratefully appreciated. I would take great pleasure in recommending Paul to anyone who needs advice.”
