Who pays?
Funding for social support and care can come from many different sources. Currently Lifeways generally contracts with and is paid by local authorities or primary care trusts. However, as Individual Budgets become more widespread, increasing autonomy will be given to people who use our services to organise their own care package using Individual Budgets and Direct Payments.
