Had anyone had difficulties with the financial assessment and assessed contribution towards Personal Budget?

Hello, I am my son's carer.

I was interested in finding out about councils' fairer charging for non-residential services. Has anyone had difficulties with the financial assessment?

Hi @matthewsmum29 and a warm welcome to our online community. How are you doing?
Sorry for the delay in responding to your question - are you experiencing difficulties with the financial assessment? If you could tell us a few more details (where comfortable), then it will help us better support you.
Also just to let you know - I've amended your thread title to include your question and attract the attention of those who may have been through this process, plus merged your posts together to help keep responses in this one space.
I hope you're having a good Friday. Take care and speak again soon.Online Community Co-ordinator

Hi @matthewsmum29 I'm so sorry no one has been able to answer your question, please accept our apologies. Is this something you still need help with?
Disability Rights UK has information on personal budgets which might be useful, but please be aware it was last updated in April 2020.
Don't hesitate to ask if there's still something we might be able to help with.

I’ve had a lot of issues with the financial assessment from the local authority.Are you aware of disability related expenses (DRE)? These should be taken into account when calculating how much you need to contribute.
