Thanks jennifer.

The charity Age Concern estimates 100,000 people should qualify for funded continuing care, but at present around 31,000 actually do. Under the new rules an extra 5,000 to 10,000 people should qualify.

But what a big gap still, regarding those who should qualify and those who will.

This would be a good place in the thread to stop the political comments and move to the Tea Room where they may be made more appropriately?

Hint hint....

Hi Margarita - saw you spotted my deliberate mistake in suggesting Tea Room and then you posted in Karen's thread in this area. Well done.

Sorry if I confused you...
