Understand your funding options
Answer a few quick questions to generate a personalized summary of the care funding rules, thresholds, and NHS benefits that currently apply to your situation.
Before we begin
We know social care funding in the UK can be overwhelming. We built this dynamic tool to cut through the noise and give you a simple summary of where you stand.
Where does the person needing care live?
Funding thresholds vary depending on which nation you live in.
What type of support are you looking for?
This determines which benefits apply and how property values are treated.
What is the primary reason for needing care?
This helps us check if you are eligible for 100% NHS funding.
Does the person needing care own their home?
We need to know this to determine if the property value is counted as an asset.
Who will continue living in the property?
Because they are moving into a care home, we must check the "Property Disregard" rules.
Roughly calculate total savings and assets
Include cash, savings, stocks, and premium bonds.
