Support for people who fund their own care
If you fund your own care or are supporting a friend or family member to do so, then we can help you put the necessary arrangements in place.
How do I get in touch?
As everyone’s circumstances and needs are very different, the best starting point is to contact us so that an adviser can talk through your needs with you and explain how we can support you with arranging the care that you require.
You can contact us by telephone, email or post to start the conversation.
How do I find a PA?
SILC’s Support Finder service is a website that helps connect disabled people with the support and services they need in their local community.
The easy to use and accessible website allows you to list your support requirements and either be matched with PAs who meet your needs or you can search the site independently for them.
Visit the Support Finder site to see which membership suits you best:
Bronze Package = £5 per month*
Silver Package = £12 per month*
Gold Package = £30 per month*
Anyone can sign up to use the Support Finder website and manage it themselves, paying only the above membership fee. *charged quarterly.
If you need more support then we offer:
Wider and in-depth recruitment support (First PA) = £235.23 + VAT - this includes setting up a support finder account on your behalf, managing applications, supporting with interviews and references.
Wider recruitment (Additional PAs) = £29.40 + VAT.
