Guide: Your guide to planning for later-life care

Guides Retirement planning Something different

Thinking about life after you finish work usually involves planning for your retirement. This means considering how to enjoy your hard-earned wealth, perhaps by travelling, spending time with friends and family, or treating yourself to something you’ve always dreamt of having, such as a new car or the holiday of a lifetime. 

However, there is another aspect of later-life planning to think about sooner rather than later: the possibility of funding care, should you need it. 

While it’s impossible to know what life has in store, longer life expectancies and rising expenses mean care costs now form an essential area of financial planning. 

This guide explores:

  • What your care options might be
  • The costs you could expect
  • Funding options
  • The role your family plays
  • How we can help build later-life care into your financial plan.

What our clients say

I would like to thank EBS and their staff for providing an excellent service, making the minefield of my various pensions seem like an easy task and for keeping me updated on the progress. I would not hesitate in recommending them to anyone looking for pension advice.

Trust and expertise were my key needs for re-establishing my financial portfolio following a divorce. The replacement life cover and complete evaluation of my pension goals were perfectly designed and implemented to suit my changed circumstances. Well done EBS!

Honest and comprehensive financial advice given with no pressure to buy any products. Reasonable fees for advice and ongoing costs. Very happy with the services given.

Many thanks for taking so much time to meet and discuss our retirement funding plans with us yesterday. The detail of the analysis was very impressive, and you and your staff are to be congratulated on a very professional job.

Our grateful acknowledgements are due for the advice and support proffered by the EBS team and everyone we met at entry, all very courteous, personable and a pleasure to meet.

The ‘Portfolio Report’ that EBS offers has made understanding and managing the family budget so much simpler. It gives a detailed summary and breakdown of our overall financial position, which is so helpful when cross-referencing it.

Thank you for your very comprehensive letter and schedules.... I must reiterate my thanks for all you have done for me.

Many thanks indeed to you and EBS for doing your very best for me. I know I am in safe hands with you. It really is very much appreciated!

I would also like to thank you all for the work in getting this organised for us. I know it has not been easy but I really appreciate it all.

We are really grateful for your perseverance with what turned out to be a pretty long and complicated process! You were brilliant at answering our questions as we decided what to do with these funds, and you helped hugely with negotiating across the companies we were dealing with.

Many thanks for your continued support and guidance. We really do appreciate 'having' you.
