When it comes to paying for care, your savings aren’t the only thing that matters.

In England, the key capital thresholds are £23,250 and £14,250, and in some circumstances the value of your home can also be taken into account.

However, there are important exceptions, including situations where a property may not be counted and a 12-week property disregard when first entering permanent care.

Knowing the rules before you need care can help you plan ahead.

Nobody likes to think about needing care in later life.

But planning ahead isn't about being negative. It's about protecting choices, reducing pressure on loved ones, and ensuring the right support is available if it's ever needed.

This week we're looking at three simple ways to become more "care ready" and why starting earlier is often better than waiting for a crisis.

A new FCA study has found that 58% of adults have no protection cover, and 59% of those people have never even considered whether they need it. That's a staggering statistic, but one many financial advisers won't find surprising.

Most people spend more time comparing mobile phone contracts than considering what would happen if illness, injury or death impacted their family's finances.

Protection isn't about expecting the worst. It's about making sure the people who depend on you are financially secure if the unexpected happens.

Paying for long-term care can be one of the biggest financial challenges many families face.

Yet many people don't fully understand how care is funded until they or a loved one need support.

Understanding the options available and how funding works could help you make more informed decisions for the future.

When it comes to planning for later life, one of the biggest misconceptions is that all care is funded by the NHS.

In reality, social care and NHS care are assessed differently. While local authority support is often means tested, some people with complex, ongoing health needs may be eligible for NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC), which is based on an assessment of their care needs rather than their financial circumstances.

Understanding how care funding works before you or a loved one need support can help you plan ahead, avoid unexpected costs and make informed decisions about the future.

Knowing the difference between NHS care, social care and NHS Continuing Healthcare is an important step in making informed choices for yourself and your family.

How much do you know about long-term care?

For many people, the answer is "not much" until they need to navigate it for themselves or a loved one.

Our first insight explores the realities of long-term care and why giving the topic some thought sooner rather than later could help you make more informed decisions in the future.

What happens to an annuity on death isn’t always well understood.

A common misconception is that annuity income will automatically continue to a spouse or family member. In reality, this depends entirely on how the annuity was set up at the outset.

Options such as joint life cover or guarantee periods must be chosen when the annuity is arranged. If they aren’t selected, income can stop immediately on death, and these decisions can’t be changed later.

This is why it’s important to understand the long‑term implications before an annuity is put in place.

HMRC has shared more detail on how inheritance tax will apply to pensions from April 2027.
A key change is that personal representatives will need to take “reasonable steps” to identify any pension schemes that may pay death benefits. This could include reviewing records, checking bank statements and online accounts, and speaking with family, advisers and providers.
It places additional responsibility on families at a difficult time, so keeping records up to date and seeking advice early can make things much easier.
