We understand that caring for someone can be physically and emotionally demanding, often leaving little time to think about the future.
Many carers are concerned about paying for care home fees, how much you might have to pay, and what happens to property. Some may have concerns around paying for care at home.
You can meet with an expert to explore your options. In Edinburgh, these are with an accredited member of SOLLA (Society of Later Life Advisors) while in Midlothian these are with an independent financial planner.
This surgery is helpful for carers where the move to long-term care may take place in the next twelve months. During the appointment, you will have the opportunity to:
- Speak to a professional about planning for long-term care and accessing support services.
- Learn about financial and legal considerations such as Power of Attorney and benefits.

These monthly sessions are open to unpaid carers registered with VOCAL.
