Update ** Funding The Cost Of Care

[MikeP]

hi all, this is mainly going to speak to my UK friends on here but i recently posted a couple guides explaining the latest Care Act and there was one which seemed to get people talking and that was the one by caring homes.

It looks like they have posted an updated version or a new version... not quite sure??
But this one now contains a map highlighting the average prices for each county and there care homes - what do you guys think? Would you move county to pay cheaper fares for the homes or still rely on subsidies to help pay?

I also saw this one from the NHS, comprehensive to say the least but quite hard to digest in one sitting!

I wonder why Devon is so much more expensive than either Cornwall or Somerset?
