Helping people navigate legal and financial issues
Pathways Through Dementia provides free, accurate legal and financial information to support people living with dementia.
Whether you’re a person diagnosed with dementia, a carer or family member, we help you to make the best decisions you can for yourself and/or the person you’re caring for.
Providing support when you need it most
We cover all aspects of the law and dementia, answering common questions such as:
- Is it too late for Power of Attorney?
- Is my relative entitled to free NHS continuing care?
- I co-own a house with my parent. What will happen to the house if they go into care?
- What sort of financial help can I get to pay for home carers?
- Am I entitled to help as a carer and how do I access that?
There is no complicated legal jargon. We offer simple and clear information so you know what the law says and you get the reassurance and direction you need.
