If you receive a care package you will have a financial assessment and may need to contribute to your care. Someone with a disability may have extra costs involved in helping them manage. This called disability-related expenses and can be offset against your contribution.
There are many examples of these and they could vary from special dietary requirement, needing extra electricity to keep warm, and buying certain types of medication or equipment not available through the NHS. The list this endless. This service will

Budget
£30 each budget
The rate the Local Authority pay you is not the rate you pay your carer and you need a budget to ensure you have enough funds to allow for essential services and carers holiday.
A budget is needed when your hours or direct payment rate change.
