Private funders
Not all personalised support is funded though public services.
'Empowered 2 Support' helps individuals and families who privately arrange and pays for their care and support and wants independent guidance, coordination and oversight.
We work alongside people to help them understand their options, develop personalised support arrangements to stay in control of decisions while reducing the burden of managing everything alone.
Our support may include:
-
Support planning and exploring available options
-
Independent brokerage and arranging support services
-
Ongoing coordination and review of support arrangements
-
Administration of agreed care and support payments
-
Helping individuals and families maintain choice, control and flexibility.
Individuals remain in control of decisions.
Where the person is not able to manage their personal finances and has no one willing and able to support them, we may offer a corporate appointeeship service. (Subject to criteria - there is a fee for this service).
