This is a excellent company
This is a excellent company, anyone who feels lost during a very stressful time wether it is for your parents or for yourself should avail themselves of this group of people. The knowledge and help and patience explaining all the pitfalls you can come across is spot on. And the response time in responding wether it's by phone or email is quick. I would recommend anyone to use them.
This is an excellent service!
This is an excellent service from knowledgeable people giving free and friendly advice. Highly recommended.
Very helpful, would strongly recommend them.
CFG were really useful when we were in a terrible state trying to work out how to manage paying for my mum's care. It was really helpful to talk to an expert who was impartial and not trying to sell us anything. I'd highly recommend their service.
I have nothing but praise for the help …
I have nothing but praise for the help I received from Owain at Care Funding Guidance. He was extraordinarily kind, informative, helpful, patient, prompt to respond, and generous with his time. During my phone calls with him I received invaluable help and guidance, and felt much reassured as to the future of my elderly mother and the possibilities regarding her care. He also wrote again (unprompted) with additional information, and generally could not have been more helpful. I am very glad for the chance here to express some of my gratitude and appreciation.
Honest guidance
I was pleased to be able to have the opportunity to discuss the options available when trying to sort out care home fees for my mother. We were able to explain our situation and Care Funding Guidance produced a number of scenarios that allowed me to make an informed choice. In the long run, due to my mother's age we decided against purchasing an annuity but we were then able to discuss possible investments with another company. This is an excellent way to get your head around the issues before making decisions that you might be locked into for a number of years. Very pleased that I was able to get support from Care Funding Guidance .
Support and Advice from Care Funding Guidance
When my sister was diagnosed with dementia and we placed her in a care home we had no idea the minefield of funding her care. We read about Care Funding Guidance in the Telegraph and contacted Owain Wright. From that moment on he has never faltered in taking care of our concerns , answering our questions and guiding us in the very best way possible to make decisions. He has made sure we have received excellent advice from the company and we are extremely grateful for his continued support. I recommend him to all those that I come to know need help, advice and support in handling the very distressing matter of care funding.
