Care Confidence – feel better prepared to make financial decisions on social care
18 Mar 2026
Care Confidence is a website designed to give those who self-fund care, easier access to information and advice, whether for yourself or someone else.
A self-funder is someone who pays for all of their social care from their own money without a financial contribution from the council. This is because their savings are higher than the eligible amount of £23,250.
Developed by university researchers with help from members of the public and professionals, the site is a treasure trove of information on matters like home adaptations, common financial concerns, downsizing or moving into a care home, managing money and making care decisions for the future.
With videos, testimonials and professional advice, the site may provide some reassurance or answer questions that might be on your mind. Click here
