What others say

SC, Leighton BuzzardRead More
“My Father had been admitted into Hospital many times over the last few years but until I spoke
with my 'Care Navigator' no one had mentioned that he may have been discharged under the Mental Health Act.
They did a Care Funding check and established that his care should have been paid for by the NHS
and Local Authority for the last 5 years, saving us nearly £200’000”! I am so grateful."

" I had paid for my Wife’s care, and had no idea the NHS could pay and when it
came through I was amazed. All £795 per week was paid, from 7 months ago. I couldn’t believe it.
Just to say thank you so very much for all you have done. It is a weight of my mind!"

“I didn't know my Sister could get a benefit for being disabled. She had
some savings and I presumed we would have to pay for everything we needed. It has made such a
difference to her, she uses it to pay for a cleaner and a gardener, which means I can get the
shopping and go out.”

“When my Mother fell and went into Hospital I wasn’t sure she would come out. This service helped
me to find and arrange care for her to go home with, I wouldn’t have known where to start”.

SD, High WycombeRead More
“They knew all of the care providers in my area and I didn’t have the worry or stress of ringing round
and not knowing what to ask” Dad is home with a live-in carer and we spend our time together
instead of me running around and getting nowhere fast. Thank you”.

LK, TowcesterRead More
“Wow! From beginning to end they helped me to understand what was happening, get the right
assessments, find a care home and claim benefits that I didn’t know existed. I can’t thank you
enough."
