National Personal Fund Management Service |
The personal fund management service is provided by families with personal experience and provides an effective service on behalf of individuals who may lack capacity to manage their funds or who do not want the responsiblity and administration that goes with Self Directed Support funding (Direct Payments or Personal Budgets) and ILF funding.
We currently manage personal funding on behalf of 2 Local Authorities and the Independent Living Fund (ILF).
Our fund management service, which was established in 2004, allows people who need support to enjoy the choice and control over personalised care packages without the work that goes with it:
i) Funds paid into our client account by the responsible Local Authority or ILF; ii) Each individual has their own ledger that is available at any time; iii) All spending made on behalf of the individual with accountability back to the person; iv) Audits of Local Authority and ILF; v) All correspondence dealt with in relation to funders; vi) Personal Assistants salaries paid by internet banking if our payroll service is used; vii) Distance no object as the system is electronic; viii) Fees for this service range from £6.75 per week to £11 per week.
Any individual or Local Authority interested in using this service, please contact us on (01695) 556 554.
