My Mum is 72 & waiting for chemotherapy to start to treat stage 4 lymphoma ( bone marrow & spleen). She has carers from local council social care going in three times a day because she is very weak & having mobility problems, incontinence & has been experiencing bad depression/ social anxiety. Please can anyone advise me on who to approach for continuing funding for home care??

  • Hello Apologygirl71 and welcome to the forum.

    I just wanted to let you know we have some information about money matters on our website here although I would recommend giving Macmillan a call as they have financial advisers you can speak to about this. Their freephone number is 0808 808 00 00, and lines are open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 8p.m.

    I hope this helps and you are able to continue the funding for your mum's home care.

    Kind regards,
