Hi everyone, looking to pick your brains here! A pal's Gran is currently in hospital, has no savings but house to sell. Naturally she and her family would like her to move many miles to live in a care home near them, but the local authority are saying 'No go'. Surely, since they will be paying initially for Gran under a deferred payment arrangement where she lives currently, they can agree to the move even if the home where she is moving is more expensive - they will get all their money back in the end anyway? Seems harsh to me, has anyone succeeded where we are failing?
Thanks, Sally
