Future care of a person with disability
The future care of a person with disability is an important issue for parents and carers. This can be of greatest concern to parents and carers of people with disability who have high support needs.
It’s important to plan for the future, for when parents and carers are no longer able to provide support and care themselves.
Visit the Carer Gateway website for helpful information, guidance and support services about preparing for the future.
Special Disability Trusts
A Special Disability Trust helps families and carers to provide funds for a family member with severe disability. This can be for their current or future care and accommodation needs.
