A fairer system of charging for care

For too long, too many people have had to pay the dementia tax- having to pay huge amounts for the essential care they need. Enough is enough - it's time to change the way we pay for care.

Time is running out to ensure that the needs of people with dementia are taken into account in any reform of the social care system, and we need your help to make the case for change right now. This is a once in a generation opportunity to create a new, fairer system of funding.
