FEES
As a registered charity we operate on a “not-for-profit” basis. Our home care services can be purchased through direct payments, personalised budgets, self-funding or provided through services commissioned by Social Services or the local NHS. Many of our services are free at the point of delivery if Social Services or the NHS have asked us to assist. For people not receiving Social Services or NHS assistance, we are very happy to receive enquiries directly from family based carers, people with care needs or their relatives/advocates.
We offers a real alternative to residential admission or hospital care with the consistency and continuity of care offered in familiar home surroundings.
