Our Managing Director, Nicky Cave, starting advising families about their care funding options back in 2002 after her grandparents had to move into care and the family received no advice about their options. The family home was sold, all the proceeds spent on care and only subsequently did Nicky find out that there were alternatives. Eldercare Group was set up by Nicky some 5 years later and now specialises exclusively in providing advice about paying for long-term care.

Our Head office is on the Essex/Hertfordshire border, but location is not a barrier to advice because any initial consultation would usually be telephone, with follow up correspondence put in writing to ensure a full and clear audit trail. The Care Providers and the families that they introduce us to are situated all over the UK.

There is no cost or obligation for us carrying out the research for you and we will write a Care Fees Funding Report for you once we have all underwritten quotes. Even if you decide, after receiving your Report, that the care fees annuity is not for you, the document should have served as a useful family discussion document and as evidence that you researched all funding options. This is an important factor if you are acting in a legal capacity as an Attorney or Deputy. All quotes will be inclusive of our arrangement fee which is only payable if you make a purchase.

All our Advisers are accredited by the Society of Later Life Advisers (SOLLA) and they can get you quotes from all Insurance Companies offering care fees annuities (currently five). Two of these Companies chose Eldercare to be their launch partner when they brought their products to market, which tells you how well regarded we are in this space.
